Training camp in Flowery Branch took a turn Sunday when several scuffles broke out between the Falcons’ offense and defense during live drills.

The intensity from the early part of Atlanta Falcons training camp took another step up with the pads coming on.

The Atlanta Falcons are roughly halfway through training camp, completing their fifth practice on Thursday morning. The team still has six practices remaining and three upcoming preseason games, starting with next Friday's matchup against the Detroit Lions.
