Todd Bowles makes Jets run sprints after practice fights

Five days ago, a locker-room two-hit fight resulted in Jets quarterback Geno Smith suffering a broken jaw. On Sunday, a pair of no-punch scuffles during practice drew the ire of coach Todd Bowles.

Via the Associated Press, Bowles made the team run wind sprints after the second skirmish.

“We understand that we can talk mess and we can jaw at each other,” Bowles said. “As long as the hits are clean, we’re fine. But we’ve got to take care of each other at the same time. There’s no cutting and there’s no hitting in the back and those types of things.
