    LeSean McCoy hit the ground, and then he tried to hit the man who put him there.

    That was linebacker Trent Cole, a good friend of McCoy's. The two squared off Sunday in the first fight of the Philadelphia Eagles' training camp.

    "Next thing you know, they're on the ground scuffling," linebacker Brandon Graham said. "It was just a friendly thing, you know. They're always competing and talking stuff to each other. It was just one of those things."

    This is one of the unintended consequences when you try to conduct football drills without pads or tackling. The defensive players aren't quite sure where the lines are drawn, and sometimes they overstep them. The offensive players feel a responsibility to each other to let the defenders know when they've gone too far.
