It was excessive, but personally, I don't blame players for knocking guys down like that. They are the ones out there exerting themselves physically. It's the people standing around that need to pay attention and make sure that they are out of the way.For real. Why did he push him like that though??I thought he was going for the classic "my momentum is carrying me into you, so I'm just gonna grab you so you don't fall down" hug. But nope, just pushed him, lol.
I say the same about the photographers and other people that are in the way of players during a game. I wouldn't jump over a photographer sitting on the ground. Safer for the player to drop their shoulder and run over the person than risk trying to jump over them and landing badly and blowing out their knee. Like that Broncos LB on MNF who dodged an official or someone and landed on that matt covering the electrical wire and blew out his ACL.
