Things got intense at Lions practice — and that might be putting it lightly. Reports from Allen Park suggest that defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad nearly came to blows with star tackle Penei Sewell after a heated exchange during drills.
According to multiple witnesses, it started with some aggressive blocking and a few extra shoves after the whistle. Before anyone could blink, words were exchanged, helmets were grabbed, and teammates had to step in before things got ugly.
While tempers flared, coaches actually seemed to like the fire. Dan Campbell has long said he wants a team full of “dudes who compete like it’s personal,” and this moment might be proof of that mindset.
After practice, several players brushed it off as just another sign of how competitive this group is heading into the next stretch of the season. Still, it’s clear — nobody on this Lions roster is backing down, not even in practice.
The Detroit Lions are hungry, edgy, and playing with that gritty chip Campbell loves. And if today’s clash proved anything, it’s that this team’s passion is as fiery as ever.
