A massive brawl at Cowboys and Saints joint practice includes punches and helmets thrown and WWE moves

It is that lovely time for summer NFL training camps when very large men are anxious because they're trying to earn jobs, they're in foul moods because it is oppressively hot, and they're also competing against opposing teams because clubs schedule joint practices with each other.

It is a petri dish of frustration and ire and aggressiveness mixing to form occasional fighting.

And that's what the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints did on Tuesday when they went at it, so to speak, during their dual practice in Oxnard, Calif.

How to describe that one: RAIDERS QUARTERBACK KIRK COUSINS, MAXX CROSBY GET INTO SCUFFLE IN TENSE TRAINING CAMP MOMENT There was a dustup.

Then skirmishes (plural).

And then a full-on brawl with punches exchanged to top it off.

Asked afterward how he judged the work his team did in practice Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer answered thusly: "Right now," Schottenheimer said, "I'm charge of fight club." Yes, punches were thrown, which isn't the smartest because a fist typically doesn't work great against a helmet.

So, some guys got smart and tossed their adversary's helmet.

Makes sense because Rechsteiner is the son of WWE Hall of Famer Scott Steiner .

Cowboys second-year linebacker Donovan Ezeiruaku was removed from practice because officials saw him throw a punch.

Cowboys cornerback Caelen Carson also threw a punch, per a video captured by the Dallas Morning News.

Saints center Erik McCoy launched a Cowboy player's helmet to the moon, although the flight didn't reach its destination and the helmet landed mere yards away.

That's when Ezeiruaku similarly grabbed McCoy's helmet, slung it off his head and similarly sent it flying.
