In only the third day of training camp, the Giants were faced with the team’s first scuffle of the season when cornerback Janoris Jenkins charged safety Eric Pinkins towards the end of practice on Sunday at Quest Diagnostics Training Center in East Rutherford.
According to CBS Sports, the 5-foot-10, 198-pound Jenkins ran up to the 6-foot-3, 230-pound Pinkins while the defense was running wind sprints at the end of practice. Jenkins pushed Pinkins backwards before throwing a couple of haymakers at the safety.
The reasoning behind the altercation between the two defensive players remains unclear, but it is not common for a fight to break out during the end-of-practice conditioning.
