EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — An angry Jon Beason accused 49ers guard Alex Boone of grabbing him from behind and deliberately pushing him in the back in a "cowardly" move Sunday night game that caused the Giants middle linebacker to sustain his first concussion.
Beason ripped Boone on Friday after returning to practice for the first time since being knocked out of the nationally televised game on the opening series.
Boone said he doesn't believe he is a dirty player, adding he is sorry that Beason feels the way he does.
The Giants have sent a videotape of the play on which running back Carlos Hyde was fined to NFL headquarters, Beason said.
