The Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver was caught on camera taking a swing at a Detroit Lions fan during the second quarter of Sunday’s win.

Metcalf was seen holding the supporter, who was bent over in the stands. He shoved him before walking back to the bench.

The 28-year-old has since been suspended for two games. He is at risk of losing a ton of money as a result. It’s also believed that the fan is considering legal action.

Detroit Lions Fan Accused Of Insulting DK Metcalf’s Mother

The Detroit Free Press managed to catch up to the fan in question. He has been identified as Ryan Kennedy.

Kennedy claimed to have triggered Metcalf by simply calling him by his first name.

“He doesn’t like his government name. I called him that and then he grabbed me and ripped my shirt. I’m a little shocked. Like everyone’s talking to me. I’m a little rattled, but I just want the Lions to win, baby,” he told the outlet.

Metcalf has reportedly relayed a different version of events. A source close to the WR told NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero Kennedy called Metcalf “something we both know you don’t call a Black man.”

He is also said to have used a derogatory term to describe Metcalf’s mother.

Meanwhile, Kennedy has denied these claims through his attorney.
