Giants offensive lineman shoved a reporter after another bad performance
According to an account by Dan Duggan of NJ Advance Media, New York Giants offensive lineman Ereck Flowers was discussing the game with two other reporters when ESPN Giants beat reporter Jordan Raanan attempted to join the conversation. There is a problem though, Flowers did not want to speak with Raanan.
Flowers stopped his media session and had the following exchange with Raanan:
Flowers: “Hey, get out my face man. Don’t come over here.”
When Raanan didn’t move, Flowers moved his face close to the reporter’s and asked, “You hear me?”
Raanan: “I’m just trying to do my job.”
Flowers: “Go over there.”
Raanan: “I’m just trying to do my job.”
Flowers: “Get the (expletive) out of my face, bro.
Raanan: “I’m just trying to do my job.“
Flowers then said, “Go over there, man,” as he shoved Raanan.
I am not sure what the consequences are for putting your hands on a reporter, but both Giants fans and Raanan should be happy because he at least got his hands on someone. Flowers maybe the worst offensive lineman in football this year, so this is a step in the right direction.
