Saints head coach Dennis Allen talked about the incident during his media availability.

“I think what kind of happened, Mike got a little discombobulated and he went through their tunnel, he was obviously trying to make his way back to our locker room. Looked like they took offense to that,” Allen said, via Saints Wire.

“I don’t think there was anything on Mike’s part where he did anything wrong. That tunnel is right there on our sideline, he just exited that tunnel, not really being aware of that. I don’t think too much of it.”

According to New Orleans.Football, Thomas was going to a checkup room and that’s why he was in the tunnel in the first place. It’s unclear why Brown was upset or what the commotion was about.
