NEW YORK — The NFL has determined a fan didn’t intentionally spill a drink on Bengals running back Chase Brown following Cincinnati’s victory in Carolina on Sunda
Video showed a fan appeared to pour a drink on Brown as he left the field and entered the tunnel at Bank of America Stadium.
“The league’s review of the matter determined that portions of a drink were accidentally spilled on the Cincinnati player as Bengals’ fans attempted to catch the gloves he tossed to them,” NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said in a statement Thursday. “The league analyzed video of multiple angles from stadium security cameras and also social media.”
If the league believed the fan purposely spilled the drink, a lifetime ban from the stadium could’ve been part of a punishment.
