Tempers boiled over yet again at Cowboys Training Camp as another scuffle disrupted team drills—this time involving a third-year defensive back and an offensive teammate during 11-on-11 red zone reps. (Video Below)
The altercation brought practice to a sudden halt, forcing coaches and teammates to separate the two players. What followed next was anything but subtle.
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer stormed toward the group and unleashed one of his most intense tirades yet, delivering a message not just to the player involved—but to the entire roster.
“You wanna fight? Take that st off my field,”** he shouted loud enough for the entire facility to hear.
“You’re a third-year player acting like a damn rookie. One more outburst like that—you’re done here!”
The outburst echoed through the practice field. Players froze. Some dropped their helmets. The tone of camp instantly shifted from competitive to serious.
According to team sources, this marks the second incident in just three days, and Schottenheimer’s patience may be wearing thin. He’s emphasized “discipline and professionalism” as core pillars in 2025, and anyone stepping outside those lines—veteran or rookie—is being called out publicly.
It’s not just about avoiding flags. It’s about building trust. And fights during scripted reps aren’t the kind of fire the Cowboys want this early in camp.
The incident was eventually diffused. Both players returned to their respective huddles, and practice resumed after a short cooldown. Coaches didn’t remove either from the session, but the message was loud and clear.
And for those wondering who drew Schottenheimer’s fury—it was third-year safety Markquese Bell, who clashed with a member of the Cowboys offense during a contested rep.
The name may be known now, but the warning was meant for everyone. Keep your fire—but keep it under control.
