Steve Smith, Ken Lucas brawl

According to Carolina Growl, Panthers WR Steve Smith and DB Ken Lucas got into a fight at camp. Not sure how Steve Smith looked after the fisticuffs, but he might have said "if you think this looks bad, you should see the other guy."
Lucas left the field bloodied and with an ice pack over his left eye.

The two men were on the sidelines while other members of the team were working through special teams drills when the fight broke out. They exchanged several punches before teammates and coach John Fox charged in to break up the fight. Linebacker Jon Beason had to pull Smith away from Lucas. It took several people to restrain the men and restore order.
Dwayne Jarrett better be careful. He's next...
Shortly after the fight Smith came over, with Muhsin Muhammad and another coach by his side, and appeared to try and reconcile with Lucas. The two men briefly exchanged a hug. Smith left and later came back to check on Lucas again.
This kind of things always seem to happen at camp. Tempers flare with the grind of camp and the hot summer temperature. Good to see they kissed and made up.
