Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Absolute joke. The guy ran right in front of him. Adams is walking in cleats probably on concrete or some non grass surface at that point.

Bills2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) 53 minutes ago, Buffalo Junction said: Charges are probably a means to gain leverage for the lawsuit. I’m sure Adams’ lawyers are already digging through the freelance photographers social media, etc to find out if he is a long term chiefs fan, litigious, etc. They can also attempt to move any trial outside of the area due to jury bias due from fandom as well. This could be interesting if it isn’t settled and swept under the rug. Regardless of that, there will definitely be some changes to protocol going forward. There will be language written into contracts with networks and freelance employees. Likely extra security clearing out the tunnels…. They can dig through all the photographer's personal stuff they want, he is on video committing an assault. They don't want a trial. They need to pay the guy and make it go away. He just signed a $141 million dollar contract, $67.5 guaranteed. He needs to write the guy a check for $1 million (basically a games salary) and make it go away.

Yes it could have been avoided if the cameraman was watching what he was doing. I've got no issue with Adams pushing him out of the way. If that guy trips Adams and he gets hurt then what? Would you feel the same if it was Diggs? Athletes do all kinds of things that are wrong, but I'm not faulting a guy for protecting hi body while in uniform and still walking to the locker room. Cameraman has to be more considerate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameraman has to be more considerate. you're really going to phrase this as adams was protecting his body? he's much larger and stronger than that camera man, so i have a very hard time taking that as an excuse. it's one thing if it's an accident where they bump into each other and someone gets knocked down. that's not what happened though. adams goes far out of his way to shove him, say something, (it seems) and walk right away. if it was diggs i'd think it was wildly as bad as if it was adams. the protecting his body nonsense and the camera man, who was thrown to the ground, has to be more "considerate"? majestic! 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is whether the guy is willing to take 1) a reasonable amount of money, 2) sign a NDA and 3) drop charges. If the photographer decides to go all in and try for $10+ million and continue pressing charges this could get dragged out for a very long time with appeals to move the case, etc. We’ll find out soon enough though. The NFL and Adams probably want this to just go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the vague term “assault” like it’s the worst version of that term when it’s really closer to “barely-qualifies-as”makes this an argument of definition. I see this interaction between two people as no big deal. They essentially ran into each other and one extended his arms/pushed the other. When a person is walking/running in one direction, and you hit them from the side, they fall over easily.

Rocky Landing Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) I looked a little closer at this video. It's been said several times on this thread that he was a photographer, but upon examination, I don't think that is the case. He's carrying a C-stand with what looks like a steady-cam rack, for resting a steady-cam when it's not in use. He's also wearing a backpack, which looks like it has some weight to it. I think this guy is a steady-cam assistant, and that pack likely had accessories in it which could have included batteries, focus mounts, matte box, etc. It's possible it could have had a lens, or two, but not likely. Could also have had a still camera. At any rate, the pack could easily have weighed 30 pounds, or more. A cameral assistant in this capacity is probably around $800 a day, give or take, and likely union affiliated. But, don't let the union affiliation misguide you-- someone in this job capacity has zero job security, and could easily have been fired for his misstep, regardless of fault, or fairness. Those items in the backpack I mentioned are all quite pricey, and likely owned by the steady-cam operator (assuming my observations are correct). EDIT: I looked this guy up, and he is a KC based photographer. (I don't know if he was working in that capacity, or not-- plenty, if not most assistant photographers/cameramen bill themselves as photographers, or cinematographers.)

The problem for him is the civil suit, the NFL suspension, and a misdemeanor assault can result in as much as 180 days in jail and he is 100% guilty of that crime.

Simstim Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Blimey, suprised at the turn that this has taken He pushed the fella. Should be suspended a match or two. Wasn't that bad, but it was also a bit of a a*hole move. His tweet was daft, though again not that bad. The misdemeanor assault charge seems a litte OTT, but will probably end up in a fine or something else minimal. Doesn't seem like one of those topics that would divide people so much.
