Here's what went down in the locker room, according to NJ.com:
Flowers: "Hey, get out my face man. Don't come over here."
When Raanan didn't move, Flowers moved his face close to the reporter's and asked, "You hear me?"
Raanan: "I'm just trying to do my job."
Flowers: "Go over there."
Raanan: "I'm just trying to do my job."
Flowers: "Get the (expletive) out of my face, bro.
Raanan: "I'm just trying to do my job."
Flowers then said, "Go over there, man," as he shoved Raanan.
The public relations staff was reportedly not present during the incident.
We're not certain what started the bad blood, but Deadspin pulled a few critical tweets that may have fired Flowers up:

That's the second sack allowed by Ereck Flowers. Also a penalty. Not good. #Giants

That would've been the third sack allowed by LT Ereck Flowers. It was negated by penalty but the struggles continue.

ESPN's Jordan Raanan later claimed the incident was a "minor thing."
All good. Minor thing. No need for anyone to be concerned. https://t.co/yJsjgGXDNs
