Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid and Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins, who were members of the Players Coalition together, got into a scuffle prior to Sunday's game.

Reid was held back by Panthers receiver Torrey Smith, who is a former teammate of Jenkins' and who has praised the veteran defensive back's leadership.

Reid and Jenkins previously fell out over the group, with the former opting to split from the Players Coalition, which he called "an NFL-funded subversion group," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

The Eagles and Reid continued to clash after the game began, with the safety bodying Philadelphia tight end Zach Ertz, who was reacting to his takedown of Carson Wentz.
