Will Davante Adams be suspended? Latest news on possible fine, suspension from NFL after pushing cameraman

When push comes to shove, don’t be Davante Adams.

The Raiders were handed a loss on “Monday Night Football,” and Davante Adams handed a poor equipment guy an unnecessary shove. Now, Adams might be handed some discipline from the NFL.

Cameras caught the receiver pushing a sound tech over on his way off the field on Monday night in a moment of frustration, then walking past said tech following Vegas’ 30-29 loss.

Adams apologized to the man through the media following the game, and also took to Twitter to make sure his words were heard by the man he pushed:

Sorry to the guy I pushed over after the game. Obviously very frustrated at the way the game ended and when he ran infront of me as I exited that was my reaction and I felt horrible immediately. Thats not me..MY APOLOGIES man hope you see this.

“Sorry to the guy I pushed over after the game. Obviously very frustrated at the way the game ended and when he ran infront of me as I exited that was my reaction and I felt horrible immediately. Thats not me..MY APOLOGIES man hope you see this,” he tweeted.

Apologies are fine and good, but the NFL may not accept it. Here’s the latest on the discipline the league may hand down to Adams. 

Will Davante Adams be suspended?

While the NFL has yet to address the situation publicly, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero says that the league is reviewing the situation and that a suspension is on the table.

If Adams isn’t slapped with a suspension, then there’s a good chance he’ll be fined for shoving the person to the ground.

It’s unclear what a fine or suspension for shoving non-player personnel would be, but expect a decision from the NFL sooner rather than later.
