It appears there’s no love lost between the Packers and Bengals if the first joint practice between the two was any indication. What seems to be about an hour to an hour and a half into the practice on Wednesday, an always-chaotic training camp brawl ensued.
As Pro Football Network’s Kyle Smith detailed, things got tense when Green Bay guard Elgton Jenkins reportedly hit Cincinnati linebacker Germaine Pratt low. This led to Pratt “talking trash” and Jenkins, who initially turned around to walk away but then “came back firing,” per Smith.
Multiple players on both sides found their way into the mix.

And what would a training camp fight be without a little post-practice trash talk to add even more fuel to the fire? Bengals defensive tackle DJ Reader chimed in with a quick tweet seemingly pointed at Jenkins, calling him “JAG,” or “just a guy.”
He’s a J A G
