Bills' Shaq Lawson Apologizes for Confronting Eagles Fan, Says Family Was Threatened

Buffalo Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson issued an apology and explained what led to him shoving a Philadelphia Eagles fan during Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss.

"Those of you who know me know that I'm all about the fans, and I have a lot of respect for the game I play and my opponents," Lawson wrote on Instagram on Monday, per ESPN's Alaina Getzenberg. "Before the game started yesterday, there was a fan behind our bench, who was making life threatening remarks towards us and our families. We asked Philadelphia security to remove the fan, but he was allowed to stay for the entire game.
