    I can't believe nobody is talking about this.
    I personally think He should get a game suspension..... at the very least.
    Thoughts????

    The guy was about to assault him with a deadly weapon so he just defended himself

    When you think your above the law, this is what happens. I hope the league does suspend him 1 game
    at his astronomical salary. That might get his attention?

    He already apologized profusely ('cause he used all caps)............on social media. Said he hopes the cameraman sees it. Seems legit!

    Hell he should probably be charged with simple assault.

    There it is he’s been charged with misdemeanor assault. As he should be. Play stupid games win stupid prizes

    Let me offer a different take. Suppose at Chiefs fan got in his way rubbing it in an it shoved ? The camera guy did much the same thing. If your the gutsy journalist looking for the big picture you take your risks. Fine Adams if you want. But anything more than that strikes me as excessive.

    But that's not what happened. The camera guy didn't even see Him coming. He was just crossing the opening of the hall.

    You’re a grown ass man and can’t control your temper because of a fan talking smack? Time to grow up. He called me an ******* so I knocked him out. That’s some infantile bs

    Camera man just doing his job. What if someone at work was having a bad day and started shoving a custodian to the ground?

    He would be suspended and if he is not in a union, could possibly be fired. I am requesting the
    league suspend him one game/ game check this should be the deterrent. What does he make 32 million per year?
    divide by 17 maybe this will get his attention. LOL.

    IMO 1 to 2 game suspension plus a hefty fine. This is waaaay over the line.

    Amazing how many people are defending his actions with excuses like "he was angry" or "he was frustrated."
    We have ALL been in a similar situation multiple times in our lives. We've all rounded a street corner, or the aisle of a grocery store, or...wherever...and almost collided with someone. And it is NEVER okay to shove them no matter how angry you are or what kind of a bad day that you are having.
    By all accounts Adams is a pretty good guy. Still though, that doesn't excuse losing your temper and assaulting someone. We all make mistakes but that still shouldn't preclude us from being punished.

    Speaking as a Davante Adams owner in Fantasy Football, I think a fine w/o suspension sounds just right. Hit him in his wallet. Don’t penalize his team, the Elvises of Steel. :good:

    The picture above shows an angle that I hadn’t seen.

    The camera guy man have jousted Adams in the stomach before they even contacted each other.

    That angle really makes one question the whole incident. No he should not have done it, but he may actually have a defense against the charges.

    I thought it was a stupid thing to do, obviously was frustrated. From everything I have heard about Adams, this was highly out of character for him.

    He was charged with misdemeanor assault, price paid for a stupid decision.

    Any sympathy I had for the cameraman went out the window when he claimed injury and is sewing Adams.
