Two Dolphins players have physical confrontation in meeting; Several Dolphins have urgency to prove their worth; Vegas embracing Fins; Canes, Marlins
Jarvis Landry and LaMike James apologized to their Dolphins teammates on Thursday after they shockingly started fighting during a special teams meeting on Wednesday, according to five sources. The confrontation involved pushing and shoving between the two players.

From what we hear, Landry --- a jovial, fun-loving guy --- was joking around at the start of the meeting. James appeared to be in a bad mood, and whatever Landry was joking about rubbed James the wrong way, prompting James to lash out physically. A source said Landry did not
level any personal attacks at James.

Pushes and shoves were exchanged, but neither player was injured; James suffered a shoulder injury this week and was limited in practice Thursday, but that injury happened while blocking in a blitz pickup in practice, according to a source. James is expected to play today.

After the incident in the meeting, Landry later apologized to James and told James he was always available to talk if James ever needed anything. Neither player has been suspended by the team, nor does this appear to warrant that.

Both players apologized in front of the team a day later. Another player on the team said both players told the team that they were sorry they created a distraction.

Coincidentally, both players are competing for return jobs on the team (see the note below about that), but that was not believed to be a factor in their dispute.

The view here: The incident appears to be an anomaly in a locker-room filled with players considered high-character, so it shouldn’t be cause for great concern.

Just 2 guys both wanting one job, as Barry said, no biggie
 
It's early, phins normally check out in December, i'll be worried when this happens late in season
 
Maybe one of the reasons they put Jonas gray on the 53
 
Sounds like these guys need to play a game.
 
LaMike might be LaGone if he doesn't watch out.

I think they have more confidence with Jarvis returning kicks anyways and the first time he screws up he may lose his roster spot.
