The Ravens took to the new sod at M&T Bank stadium in a fight-marred practice under otherwise ideal conditions and a small crowd.
The new field at M&T looked great at the outset, but a 3-hour practice for 90 men (even without tackling) left noticeable wear. I don’t know what people expect it to look like in December.
The practice was full pads, but no-tackle. For whatever reason, it was the most physical practice to date as tempers flared. Here is what I observed in terms of fights:
• Lawrence Guy threw what appeared to be a retaliatory punch to the midsection of backup tackle Stephane Nembot after the 2 emerged from a 20+ player scrum.
