After getting into a fight with wide receiver Julian Edelman during practice Tuesday, New England Patriots cornerback Stephon Gilmore explained what happened Saturday.

According to Phil Perry of CSNNE.com, Gilmore said the situation got heated because he has no friends on the field in competitive situations: "There's not really no friends on the field to me. Once I'm on the field, there's no friends. But off the field, [it's] very respectful. [I] respect everybody on this team. Talk to them. It's nothing personal. It's just when I'm on the field, I'm super competitive and there's no friends.
