There may be no crying in baseball, but apparently, there is in football.

    Miami Dolphins rookie Manuel Wright, it would seem, is having a difficult time adjusting to the NFL.

    Wright broke down in tears during practice Tuesday afternoon right after Coach Nick Saban chewed him out. It's not known exactly what was said, but the rookie from USC apparently showed up at camp out of shape and struggling with injuries.

    The 6-foot-6, 290-pound defensive tackle is Miami's supplemental draft pick this year.

    Exactly why Wright lost his composure was unclear. Team policy does not allow reporters access to players following a midday interview period.

    Dolphins coach Nick Saban said young players need to become tough in order to be professionals.

    Wright was able to finish the workout, Miami's third of this year's training camp.
