The back and forth that both teams had was indicative of the long-standing rivalry between these talented squads. Despite the Ravens losing, they are sure to bounce back and be one of the favorite teams to challenge for the AFC crown.

That said, emotions can often run high following a loss, and Ravens star quarterback Lamar Jackson let those emotions get the best of him.

Following a touchdown pass from Jackson to DeAndre Hopkins, a fan apparently slapped the helmet of Hopkins and then Jackson, resulting in Jackson shoving the fan.

Now, Jackson has broken his silence about the situation, apologizing for his behavior.

In the video, Jackson is seen shoving the fan with some clear force.

“I seen him slap D-Hop … then he slapped me. And he sat there talking, so I just forgot where I was for a little bit. You gotta think in those situations. You got security out there, let security handle it. I just let me emotions get the best of me. Hopefully, it won’t happen again. I’ll learn from that,” Jackson stated.

There is no telling what the fan may have said or done to Jackson and Hopkins, but it was enough for Jackson to react harshly. He chose to deal with the situation with aggression, which is never a good look.

Jackson apologized in the video, and it would be believed that the moment was simply one born from the intensity of the game.

It is not often that two teams in the prime pull off a classic in Week 1, and it just goes to show how elite the Ravens and Bills are.
