A brawl between the Bengals and Rams forced the teams to halt their joint practice Thursday.
The NFL's long-held stance is that individual teams, and not the league itself, are responsible for imposing discipline for conduct of players during practices, including joint practices, so any punishment for the melee would have to be determined by the Rams and Bengals themselves.
"I just see guys swinging and some guys have helmets on, some don't," McVay said."There's a scrum. You just never know what can occur. And my biggest concern is just unnecessary injuries for people that we're counting on, whether it's for our team or the other team.""We just called it," Taylor said."We were in the last [practice] period. We got two really good days of work. So was worth getting the extra couple of plays? No. So we called it.
