Tebowma-nia turned into Wrestlemania for the New York Jets during one big training camp throwdown.

About 20 players were involved in a brief brawl during a practice Monday after running back Joe McKnight and safety D'Anton Lynn tangled after a play.

Lynn, the son of Jets running backs coach Anthony Lynn, shoved McKnight out of bounds after a handoff from Greg McElroy. An angry McKnight then fired the football at Lynn.

The two got into it, with McKnight charging Lynn and throwing a punch that didn't land. Lynn then pushed McKnight - with help from cornerbacks Julian Posey and Donnie Fletcher - and all four went rolling into an area where reporters were watching practice.

Offensive and defensive players ran over to their tussling teammates and a pileup ensued. Several reporters scattered as the players jumped on each other and wrestled a few feet in front of a barricade where fans sit.

Coach Rex Ryan, along with several players, including Tim Tebow, ran over to break up the melee.
