Browns guard Joel Bitonio wasn’t thrilled with the way the Eagles acted during Tuesday’s joint practice. 

Bitonio said the Eagles took “cheap shots” on both sides of the ball and specifically mentioned how they went after quarterback Deshaun Watson during the workout.

Things got heated a half hour into the joint exercise when safety Reed Blankenship ran over running back Demetric Felton Jr. after he intercepted a pass. 

“We’re going into this week trying to get better in practice and work and sometimes there are some cheap shots and things like that where you want to defend yourself,” Bitonio said, according to Cleveland.com. “I don’t know the exact situation, but there were a couple shots today where we’re trying to make sure we’re getting the best out of practice and not fighting.

“But it was just a little heated second day. It always gets a little bit more fired up.”

The Browns guard said he felt things flaring up between the two teams before the fight broke out.

He added that it was why they only had two-day joint practices instead of three. 

Eagles safety K’Von Wallace told reporters afterward that Philly had been more amped up Tuesday. 

“We just had to play with a little bit of a chip on our shoulder compared to yesterday,” Wallace said. “Play with a little more edge. it showed and ended up dominating on both sides of the ball.”

Wallace added: “Some teammates might get a little heated and pushing and shoving going on, but that’s all it was. Just football at the end of the day.”

However, it was the way that the Eagles had gotten physical with Watson during the practice that really irked Bitonio. 

“I mean it’s just in our practice, you protect the quarterback,” he said.

“You don’t want to come close to the quarterback, you don’t want to take cheap shots, things like that where there might’ve been a couple of questionable plays both ways today.”
