The Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints got into a heated altercation during Tuesday’s joint practice, with Brock Rechsteiner finding himself right in the middle of the action.
It’s unclear what sparked the confrontation, but Rechsteiner and Cowboys cornerback Caelen Carson were seen shoving each other before Carson grabbed Rechsteiner by the facemask. Players from both teams quickly became involved, with the situation escalating into a larger pushing and shoving match.
Rechsteiner eventually got tangled up with Saints safety Jalen Thompson. The son of WWE Hall of Famer Scott Steiner managed to secure a waistlock on Thompson before taking him to the ground with a suplex-style takedown.
Coaches and teammates eventually intervened and separated the players, bringing the altercation to an end.
Rechsteiner, who is the son of Scott Steiner, is currently suspended for the first six games of the NFL season after violating the league’s joint NFL-NFLPA policy on performance-enhancing substances.
