Five-time All-Pro center Jason Kelce blindsided Zaire Franklin at the end of a play, which appeared to spark a brawl, according to multiple reports.

Kelce seemed to take exception with the level of physicality the Colts linebacker had with Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell during back-to-back plays.

The practice session was cut short due to the melee. The Eagles center later took ownership of his actions which were described as a "cheap shot."

"That certainly doesn't belong out there on the field, and a little ashamed that it got to that level."
