Diontae Johnson got into a "heated" argument with Minkah Fitzpatrick in the Steelers locker room before Cameron Heyward and T.J. Watt broke up the altercation, sources told ESPN.
I love this, from all accounts. Diontae is rightfully pissed… to say that the offensive weapons are criminally underused is an understatement. Minkah is rightfully defending the coach(es)… not checking a, mad, player who is targeting the coach(es) means the locker room loses stability & respect from peer to coach
TJ & Cam rightfully breaking it up… can’t have star players going at each other, especially those who play on opposing sides of the ball. Each side will lose trust in each other, and that will affect how they play b/c they feel like they have to do it all.
All together, I’m happy this situation happened (because it shows the players care & not accept anything other than being competitive), and I’m happy how it was handled.
