Seahawks defensive end Quinton Jefferson tried to fight a fan who hurled a drink him.
Jefferson was walking off the field after being ejected for his involvement in a scrum between the Seahawks and Jaguars. As Jefferson was walking towards the locker room, he pelted with multiple drinks, causing him to take off his helmet and turn back around.
Jefferson then proceeded to trade barbs with multiple Jaguars fans as security tried to defuse the situation.
After several tense moments, Jefferson appeared ready to walk away from the situation before a fan threw another drink at him, this one nearly hitting him in the head.
Jefferson then broke away from a security personnel’s grasp and attempted to leap into the stands and engage with the fan. Security was able to pull Jefferson down from the wall seconds before the situation could have potentially taken a dangerous turn for the worse and escort him into the locker room as a another drink was thrown in his direction.
“I’m not going to let someone disrespect me like that,” Jefferson said of the fan, per Bleacher Report.
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll admitted Jefferson “kinda lost it.”
Jefferson will most likely be suspended and receive a hefty fine for his actions,NY Daily reported.
