Alabama linebacker Mekhi Brown had to be restrained by teammates and coaches as he confronted a member of his coaching staff on the sideline during Monday's College Football Playoff national championship game.
Brown, a sophomore, had just been flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct on a kickoff. Brown was then shown yelling at a staff member before attempting to physically engage him.
