NFL Network cameras were on hand as the Seahawks held workouts at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center in Renton, WA.

New coach Mike Macdonald briefly interrupted the action to address the team as several fights broke out between players, for ESPN.

The first brawl saw Brown and wide receiver Jake Bobo face off during an 11-on-11 fight.

Punches were exchanged with Bobo emerging from the melee with a bloody nose.

Tensions escalated from there, with Metcalf and Brown facing off in the end zone soon after.

Metcalf was seen grabbing Brown’s helmet as his teammates desperately tried to separate them.

The 26-year-old swung his helmet wildly, hitting safety K’Von Wallace in wild scenes visible from the NFL Network Sideline Broadcast.

Macdonald interrupted training after the fights to gather the entire team on the field.

But that didn’t stop further problems, according to ESPN reports.

Moments after the head coach’s pep talk, edge rusher Derick Hall countered a late push from guard Christian Haynes.

The pair again had to be separated after exchanging blows, before both were expelled from training.

After the coaching session, Macdonald was asked by NFL Network where he would “draw the line” in terms of fighting.

“We’re in the game now,” the Seahawks coach responded.

“I think the guys realized that. Hey, let’s take care of each other.
