A disturbing video is making the rounds on social media involving a current and former staffer on Colorado's football staff.
According to
Athlon Sports, the leaked video involves former staff member
Trevor Reilly and current graduate coach
Josh Jynes engaging in a fistfight. In the video, you can hear commentary of the fight from current staff member and former NFL star
Warren Sapp.
Athlon Sports' Steven Corder broke the news on Sep. 4, and it was during his interview with Reilly when the ex-staffer confirmed he got into it with Jynes. Reilly revealed that the fight took place the day Reilly resigned from his position in early August. The fight was captured by a security camera on Colorado's campus. It is unknown if the fight was ever reported to campus police or otherwise.
Another source of Athlon shared that this isn't the first time Jynes and Reilly have fought. Jynes and Reilly allegedly got into an altercation in the weightroom earlier this year.
These acts of violence have apparently trickled its way down to the players as well. Former players confirmed to Athlon that a fight broke out between offensive linemen
Jordan Seaton and
Savion Washington, who ultimately transferred to Syracuse.
A few days before the Seaton-Washington fight, cornerback
Isreal Solomon was also allegedly involved in a scuffle with five teammates and was sucker-punched by wide receiver
Jimmy Horn Jr. Solomon is no longer with the team.

Reilly also confirmed the violent tendencies of safety
Shilo Sanders, son of head coach
Deion Sanders. Shilo Sanders has allegedly been involved in two physical altercations with teammates, which has also been confirmed by a player's parent. The first fight allegedly took place during a walk-through drill, where Shilo ran full speed into another player. The second fight is alleged to have taken place during a film room study. A teammate called out Shilo's actions during a fight in the game, prompting Shilo to allegedly respond to with a punch.
An unnamed former player also told the Athlon, "There are many distractions with fights, guns, and money floating around. The environment is unlike any I've come from before."
From bullying, fighting and controversial hires like Sapp, coach Sanders has found himself and the team with issues unrelated to the game.
