Bills fan shoved by Lamar Jackson after hitting DeAndre Hopkins, Ravens QB following TD image

A Buffalo Bills fan made contact with Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, which led to the former Most Valuable Player shoving the fan back following a touchdown pass from Jackson to wide receiver Lamar Jackson.

The incident happened in the fourth quarter of the Bills-Ravens Week 1 contest. The Bills fan initially hit Hopkins in the helmet as he was celebrating behind the end zone, and the fan then made contact with Jackson's helmet, also.

The Ravens star understandably did not take kindly to that and went on to shove the fan in response.

Here's a clip of Jackson shoving the fan.

Here's another angle showing the contact the fan made with Hopkins initially, and you can see the fan hit Jackson in the helmet after.

One of the most important rules for fans attending any sporting event is to keep their hands off the players.

The Bills fan was way out of line doing what he did, and while you never want to see a player retaliate like that, Jackson's actions were understandable.

Whatever the case may be, that fan needs to be banned from the stadium. There is no place for stuff like that.
