“Appears” to shove.
Just saying it wasn’t clear that he made contact with the fan. If there is another angle that the league can see that shows it he needs to be sat down a bit. That’s a no doubter.
But all I see is the fan jump back a little. Could be contact. Could just be a flinch from Phillips and the fan stepping back. Can’t say for sure.
As a lawsuit goes (if there was contact)…meh. Stupid. Player should never make contact. Let league handle. Fan was clearly instigating. As a lawsuit goes, just meh.
And the lawsuit filing is going to video review. We may need Gene on this one

That’s a very conservative take, I assume the fan gets the same benefit.
Fan was clearly instigating.
Wait, WTF? How the fuck do you have these two completely incongruent viewpoints?
Who walked up to whom? That leads me to a jawing Eagle fan instigating. Familiarity with such Eagles fans supports this too.
I still don’t see player making physical contact for fact. Not in this view.
There is no lawsuit here, but the league will probably take action. They are going to want to hold players to a higher standard than this.
Right, it clearly wasnt meant to cause injury and no one was hurt. Slap on the wrist. Emotions got the better of them in a tight game. Not cool but not a big deal.
Exactly. I don’t know if many Eagles fans will say it, but I will. That guy might have been being an absolute asshole.
Best overall would be to ignore, but I have no issue going and jawing. If that was indeed contact that’s the line as far as the league goes.
It will be absolutely litigious. It just shouldn’t be.
