'The Heat Got to us:' Giants' Practice Ends with a Fight as Players Push, Shove and Throw Punches

The New York Giants ended their sixth OTA practice early on Thursday in New Jersey due to multiple on-field skirmishes among players.
During 11-on-11 drills, tensions boiled over resulting in multiple altercations involving defensive ends Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux, as well as offensive linemen James Hudson and Jermaine Eluemunor.
Burns and Hudson had a shoving match, removing helmets before teammates separated them, while Thibodeaux threw a punch at Eluemunor, leading to Hudson tackling Thibodeaux.
Burns said, "It's a violent sport we play," and called the fights "healthy at times," while quarterback Russell Wilson described the incidents as "nothing to worry about."
The early end to practice and on-field disputes highlight raised tensions as the Giants prepare for a crucial season following a 3-14 record last year.
