Fan Injured in Panthers, Patriots Practice Fight Involving Christian McCaffrey

A fan attending a joint practice between the Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots on Wednesday got more than she bargained for when a fight broke out between the two teams.

Per ESPN's David Newton and Mike Reiss, Patriots defensive lineman Deatrich Wise Jr. landed on a female fan on the sidelines after McCaffrey was knocked out of bounds on a running play.

McCaffrey got to his feet and spiked the ball at Wise's feet, leading to members of both teams getting into a physical altercation that moved near the stands where fans were seated.
