Was Mercedes Nelson Kicked Off Of "Football Wives" For Fighting?

Mercedes Nelson of Vh1’s “Football Wives” may have been asked to leave to show because of a fight with a fellow cast member, and this drama comes just after the very first episode.

Mercedes is the ex-girlfriend of Dallas Cowboy running back Marion Barber and is listed as part of the cast for VH1′s reality show “Football Wives”. So why was she absent during the premiere episode on Sunday night?

Sources are reporting that Mercedes got into a girlfight on the set and hurled various projectiles at cast mate Chanita Foster!

Apparently all hell broke loose during a recent taping when Mercedes got irritated at cast mate Foster and decided to pick up table top items and hurl them in the direction of the wife of NFL vet George Foster. Producers reportedly stopped production and came to an agreement that it would best for Mercedes to leave the show.

Despite these reports VH1 is adamant that the model wasn’t asked to leave explaining that:

“She only ended up being in a few episodes due to story lines.”

Yeah okay!!!
