“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.

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 way you can honestly believe that heckling at a sports game is considered instigating an altercation. We'd have to shut down every sports game ever.
