The New England Patriots have a rule: if you get in a fight at practice, you’re kicked out of practice. That came into play on Tuesday when WR Julian Edelman and CB Stephon Gilmore got into a fight, according to the beat reporters on the scene:
Julian Edelman has been told to leave practice after starting a fight with CB Stephon Gilmore after an incomplete end-zone pass.

Julian Edelman took exception to Stephon Gilmore holding him and then wrestled with him on the ground. Gilmore has also been told to leave.

It sounds like Edelman was very angry.
Edelman and Gilmore just got tossed from practice after getting in a big fight. Edelman had to be pried away and carried off by Hogan
