Vic Fangio Had to Break up Another Fight at Broncos Camp Between Don Barclay and DeShawn Williams
By James.r
There's a new coach in Denver, and maybe his hard-nosed defensive mindset is kicking in a bit too much for the players during training camp. Earlier this week, Broncos wide receivers Courtland Sutton and Emmanuel Sanders got into a scrum, throwing punches and eventually being forced by Fangio to make amends in front of the rest of the team.
Apparently, Fangio had to get in the middle of another brawl on Tuesday, this time between offensive lineman Don Barclay and defensive end DeShawn Williams.
Give Fangio credit: he's clearly injected a jolt of toughness into his new team. Still, though, we'd imagine he doesn't want to be forced to intervene in a fight every other day.
Fangio is well known for being a football guy through and through, a dude who doesn't take any crap and loves the intensity of the game. Just consider what he coached through for the meaningless Hall-of-Fame Game last week:
"Winning's cured more ills than penicillin" is the quintessential football coach quote. We're sure Fangio had some very deep proverbs for Barclay and Williams to make the two break it up on Tuesday.
