re: Morris Claiborne tackle starts brawl at Cowboys vs Raiders scrimmage

Per ESPN...

The brawl started when Cowboys cornerback Morris Claiborne slammed Raiders tight end Mychal Rivera to the turf by the sideline, just a few yards from a section of the crowd that was predominantly Raiders fans. There was an agreement that there would be no tackling at the practice, but Claiborne said he decided to take down Rivera after the tight end lowered his shoulder.

Fair enough. I still think nothing was really wrong with the play. Once the TE lowered his shoulder then Claiborne has to do the same. Just typical training camp stuff
