NAPA, Calif. (AP) -Quentin Groves gathered the Oakland Raiders’ linebackers together after meetings Friday and talked about making the unit the heart of the defense.
Groves then went out and got into a fight with fullback Alex Daniels at practice Saturday, flinging his 6-foot-4, 260-pound teammate to the ground and landing a few punches before trying – and missing – with a kick.
Groves says he was just trying to provide a spark, and Daniels shrugged off the fight.
Groves has extra motivation this preseason. He’s trying to find a spot on Oakland’s 53-man roster and is listed behind strongside linebacker Kamerion Wimbley on the depth chart.
