After the game, Adams apologized but noted that the cameraman had abruptly “jumped in front of him.”
“I want to apologize to the guy … he ran & jumped in front of me coming off the field and I bumped into him & pushed him and then he ended up on the ground. … That was just frustration mixed with him literally just running in front of me. I shouldn’t have responded that way.”

According to TMZ, the cameraman has filed assault charges against Adams and claims he suffered injuries from his fall to the ground.
TMZ Sports has learned … the man went to cops at Arrowhead Stadium at around 10:30 PM — just moments after Adams had pushed him following the Raiders’ 30-29 loss.
Authorities tell us the man claimed he was the victim of an assault. They say he told them he suffered injuries … though they were “thought to be non-life threatening.”
Cops say they are investigating it all — and following the completion of the probe, detectives “will coordinate with the applicable city or state prosecutor to determine any applicable charges.”
The Kansas City police department released a statement regarding their investigation into Adams.
