Ravens’ Lamar Jackson Pushes Fan After Getting Smacked On Helmet

What an absolutely bananas night in Buffalo!

Lamar Jackson, the superstar quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was caught on video shoving a fan of the Buffalo Bills following.a touchdown pass to his wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. The incident took place on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football.”

Near the end of the third quarter, Jackson tossed a 29-yard touchdown throw to Hopkins, doing so on an incredible one-handed grab. When the quarter came to a close, the Ravens entered things with a 34-19 lead. (RELATED: Brian Daboll, Malik Nabers Get Into Heated Confrontation As New York Giants Go Down Toilet)

A fan near the field was shown on NBC’s broadcast smacking both Jackson and Hopkins on the helmet as they celebrated around the barrier, but Jackson wasn’t taking it. Instead, he shoved the fan.

No penalty was issued on the play. When he got back to the Ravens’ bench, Jackson seemingly regained control of his emotions. Hopkins, on the other hand, didn’t react to the fan whatsoever.

I have no problem with what Lamar Jackson did here.

Players should have to deal with taunting and ish-talking, it’s only fair to the fans who spend their hard-earned money to go to an NFL game, but there should be nothing physical attached to any of it. And if it does get to that level, then the player has every right to defend themselves, which is exactly what Jackson did.

Nothing to see as far as I’m concerned.
