Michael posted online that he had no clue why it happened and that he was just dancing to the music on the speakers. According to the media reports and Saints coach, Thomas made his way into their tunnel instead of his own team. Perhaps the adrenaline got the better of him.

Brown did not appreciate the move and was irked by the same, which led to the scuffle between the two. Although it seemed like it would escalate into something more violent, the duo had no further interactions. The Orleans Saints put up a great performance to go 2-0.
