We are at that time of the year when tempers will be flaring between teammates as they head into training camps where the heat will not feel good and everybody will be on edge.
Today we are looking back at a time Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen got into a heated scuffle with a 341-pound player.
The Buffalo Bills had their first fight of 2022 training camp right as the practice was winding down and the first-teamers were conducting team drills. The play called was a designed run for the QB up the middle.
Allen collided with defensive tackle Jordan Phillips who put a bit of shoulder contact on Allen and the quarterback did not like it. Allen immediately turned around and gave a bit of a shove back.
All hell soon broke loose. Everyone else on the field then got involved and tempers flared.
The team does not allow the media to record team drills at practice, but fans watching the session certainly did so.

Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips re-signed with the team via a one-year, $3 million deal this offseason. Phillips had his breakout year with the Bills in 2019. He mustered together 9.5 sacks in 16 games that season.
In 2022, Phillips appeared in Buffalo’s defensive line rotation for 12 games. When Phillips was on the field, he managed 20 tackles, including three for loss, with 1.5 sacks.
He is clearly a big part of the team, so the scuffle did not hurt his standing with the team.
