Hill got up, got in Wilson\u2019s face, yelled at him and pointed him back to his huddle. Hill did not throw a flag, but many people watching the game thought Hill overreacted by yelling at Wilson.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson said after the game that he thought it was no big deal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat was funny, honestly,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cI ended up apologizing to him and explained the situation. He was cool about it. He understood what was going on. He just said he didn\u2019t want us fighting, me and [Gordon].
