Cowboys player should get cut on the spot after egregiously classless move in practice vs Rams

This might come off as a knee-jerk overreaction but I'm sorry: You just can't do what Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Albert Huggins did on Wednesday's joint practice with the Los Angeles Rams.
During a simple one-on-one drill, Huggins egregiously knocked down a member of the Rams staff. The clip shows Huggins fully extending his arms with force when contacting the staff member, who is playing the role of a quarterback standing in the pocket. To eliminate any trace of a potential doubt that it was all accidental, Huggins turns around and flips off the Rams. What the heck?
The move was totally classless and uncalled for and it seemed to bother the Cowboys as much as it did the Rams as Huggins was kicked out of practice immediately.
This is the kind of thing that should get you cut on the spot when fighting for a spot on an NFL roster, specially when you struggled as much as Huggins did in the preseason opener, which scored him the second worst PFF grade on the team defensively speaking. If you fail to make an impact on the field and can't keep your cool in practice, what reason are you giving the team to keep you around?
The Cowboys should call it a day with the Huggins experiment after the unacceptable incident. Huggins arrived at Dallas with training camp already underway and was considered a long-shot for the 53-man roster from the start.
