Our old friend Marty B gets into scuffles at Bears training camp

+

Bennett’s run-ins with safeties Chris Conte and Major Wright and nickel back Kelvin Hayden highlighted the most physical practice of training camp. The biggest was the bench-clearing scuffle that broke out after Hayden tackled Bennett, and Bennett responded in kind. Things got so intense that Bennett had to step away after getting into it with Wright not long after the Hayden scrum. "I stepped out for a second," Bennett said. "It’s practice. That’s what we’re here for. Everybody is aggressive; everybody is a little tired; everybody is a little sore. Guys do something you don’t like, you just react. I’m an aggressive player; I will never stop being one. I’m a blue-collar player, and that’s what I always will be, and I enjoy playing like that." Bennett said he "turned into game mode" but didn’t throw any punches.
