Training Camps never seem to go without incident and this Dallas Cowboys scrimmage on Sunday got pretty heated. Dez Bryant didn’t appreciate the hit he took from J.J. Wilcox and the two started swinging at each other, igniting a scuffle on the field.
The Dallas Morning News got quotes from both the players on the incident:
“I got a good little cheap shot in,” Wilcox said. “That’s the spark you need. I am trying to feed off it and get my defense right.”
Bryant’s view?
“J.J. put a nice hit on me,” the receiver said. “He pissed me off, but at the end of the day, I loved it. I told him, ‘Keep it coming.’ Hopefully the rest of the guys on that defense – not only the defense, but the offense and the whole team – feed off of that. That’s what it takes to win. That’s what we need to win. You’ve got to have that passion and that love for the game.”
