Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson apologized to the fan he pushed during last Sunday night\u2019s loss to the Bills in Buffalo. <\/p>\n
The fan reached over the railing to shove Jackson and Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins in the helmets after Hopkins caught a touchdown pass in the third quarter of the Bills\u2019 41-40 victory. Jackson responded by pushing the fan and said at a Wednesday press conference that he \u201cwasn\u2019t even thinking about me being out there on the field\u201d when he felt the shove. <\/p>\n
\u201cMy apologies to that [person] \u2014 whoever that was \u2014 I don\u2019t know who it was,\u201d Jackson said, via a transcript from the team. \u201cMy apologies to him. Just chill next time. You can talk trash and stuff, but keep your hands to yourself. That\u2019s all I can say.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jackson said he has not spoken to the league about any potential discipline for the incident, but has spoken to General Manager Eric DeCosta and that DeCosta has spoken to the league. The fan has been indefinitely banned from Highmark Stadium and all of the league\u2019s other stadiums. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson apologized to the fan he pushed during last Sunday night\u2019s loss to the Bills…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":135241,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[49,48,514,82],"class_list":["post-135240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135240"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135240\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/135241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
