A day removed from Fred Johnson getting first-team work at Cincinnati Bengals training camp and receiving praise from coaches, head coach Zac Taylor confirmed he’s very much in an open battle at right tackle with Bobby Hart.

Taylor revealed the following, per ESPN’s Ben Baby: “I think Fred’s still battling for that job.”

Baby added context: “Taylor praises Hart’s approach so far in camp, said he isn’t ready to declare a starter.”

This is one of the first times we’ve really seen Bengals coaching admit Hart could be in danger at right tackle. It feels like a natural development given Hart’s struggles last year and his clear issues at times during this camp.

Johnson has previously seen looks at right guard and line coach Jim Turner likes him as a swing tackle, too. But from the sounds of it, there’s a chance he could easily break into the opening-day lineup and send Hart to the bench.

Remembering the Giants’ biggest training camp fights from recent years

As the New York Giants ready themselves for the first padded practice of the year, here’s a look back at some of their biggest camp fights.

The New York Giants will put on the pads for the first time on Monday, which means tempers are likely to flare and fists may begin to fly.

That may sound dramatic, but it’s just the nature of NFL training camps. And when considering the Giants will also hold intrasquad scrimmages once per week, it seems almost inevitable that a few punches will be thrown.

With that in mind, here’s a look back at some of the biggest and most memorable Giants training camp fights from recent years.

2019: Lorenzo Carter vs. Nick Gates

The Giants didn’t do much fighting in 2019, but there were a few dust-ups.

One such incident came last August when linebacker Lorenzo Carter and offensive lineman Nick Gates got into a bit of a scrap.

While neither player swung at the other, there were a few shoves before teammates swarmed and pulled the two apart.
