Watch Dez Bryant get punched in face at joint practice with Rams

St. Louis Rams cornerback Imoan Claiborne did something Philadelphia Eagles fans have probably wanted to do for decades. He punched a Dallas Cowboys player in the face.

It all took place at one of those now-common joint practices between the Cowboys and Rams. One guy treated another guy a little too rough and things spiraled. Does who started it really matter? I don't think so. Punches were thrown and Dez Bryant caught the worst of it. He even lost a diamond earing in the scrum which was later recovered by a security guard.

Dez apparently tweeted about it but then had second thoughts, via PFT:

“I wish I would have cheap shot his ass then all of y’all would have seen the difference,” Bryant said. “You can’t even put that s--- on world star lol.” (The tweet already has been deleted.)
