"OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson apologized to the Buffalo Bills fan that he shoved in retaliation Sunday night, but the two-time NFL Most Valuable Player offered some advice. "Just chill next time," Jackson said after Wednesday's practice. "You can talk trash and stuff but keep your hands to yourself." During Sunday's 41-40 loss in Buffalo, Jackson was celebrating with some teammates near the front row of Highmark Stadium after he threw a 29-yard touchdown pass to DeAndre Hopkins."
"The fan wearing a red Bills jersey initially hit Hopkins on the helmet before doing the same to Jackson, who immediately delivered a two-handed push that sent the fan falling backward. "It just happened," Jackson said. "I got pushed. I'm like, what? I wasn't even thinking about me being out there on the field. My apologies to him." Jackson said he has not heard from the league about any potential discipline."
