The Seattle Seahawks had their most physical practice of the Mike Macdonald era on Wednesday, including a post-play fight that resulted in receiver DK Metcalf swinging a helmet and hitting a teammate in the head.

Metcalf’s helmet swing in the direction of cornerback Tre Brown — one of several melees Wednesday, Day 13 of training camp — was captured on NFL Network.

The fisticuffs began earlier in the day. Brown engaged in pushing and shoving with receiver Jake Bobo, who ended up losing his helmet. Brown punched Bobo in the face, and there appeared to be blood on the receiver’s jersey after the scrum.

In the next drill, linebacker Tyrel Dodson and tight end Pharaoh Brown shoved each other and got tangled up during a goal line drill. Brown seemed upset that Dodson hit running back Ken Walker III after the play was finished. The very next snap led to the Metcalf and Brown fight.

Brown pushed a hand in Metcalf’s face, and while he walked away, the two began arguing. Metcalf then reversed course, charged Brown, ripped off his helmet and swung it. But instead of hitting Brown, Metcalf connected with the top of safety K’Von Wallace’s helmet, which, as is now required for most players, was covered with a soft-shell Guardian Cap. Wallace, who was trying to diffuse the situation, did not appear injured and participated in the rest of the practice.
