WATCH: Leonard Fournette shoves Florida assistant during pregame scuffle
LSU and Florida players got into a shoving match before the game
Leonard Fournette is not expected to play in what will likely be his final home game as a member of the LSU Tigers due to an ankle injury, but he made sure to get some contact in before the game.
Players from both LSU and Florida got into a bit of a shoving match before Saturday's game, and Fournette is seen on video stiff-arming Gators defensive backs coach Torrian Grey. You can see Fournette come into the video wearing purple warm-ups, and at about the 14-second mark, he pushes a Florida assistant away from him.
Fight breaks out between #LSU-Florida players.

Now, I recommend that players never touch coaches in these things, at least not on purpose. I don't care what the coach is doing or saying -- and it doesn't look like Gray was trying to break anything up, just jawing -- it's just not in Fournette's best interests to get involved with it.
I don't think this incident by itself is a big deal, but you never know how NFL teams will view these things.
