The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers have a rivalry rooted in decades of NFL history, going back to the disdain between franchise icons Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry–who were fellow assistants with the Giants in the late 1950s–so whenever the two franchises meet, there will always be an extra layer of tension to the game. On Sunday at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, that was evident as, moments before the marquee Sunday night game was set to kick off, the two teams engaged in some pushing and shoving on the field.

ESPN’s Todd Archer described it: “A little dust up between the Cowboys and Packers at the end of pregame. Saw Joey Porter Jr. getting into it. Maybe some Jaishawn Barham, Broderick Jones and Jake Ferguson too. Didn’t see any punches thrown. Referees were able to break things up. Kickoff is 26 minutes away.”

Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram noted, “Caught the tail end of some pushing and shoving by the Cowboys and Packers heading to the tunnel. The rivalry is in the air tonight.”
