Bills Fan Banned Indefinitely After Slapping Lamar Jackson During Shocking Ravens Loss (Video) The Buffalo Bills' shocking win on Sunday over the Baltimore Ravens came at a cost for one fan who got a little too handsy with some of the players.

The NFL hit back. Now, the fan has been identified and will be "indefinitely banned" from NFL stadiums, according to ESPN's NFL insider Adam Schefter.

Hey, Patriots Fans: It’s A New Era In Foxborough—And You’ll Want A Seat For It It’s hard to swallow losing when you’ve spent decades winning. But that’s where the New England Patriots found themselves in 2024—stumbling to a 4–13 record, their worst season since 1992.  It was a painful shift for a fanbase used to banners, playoff runs, and double-digit wins. But after three straight losing seasons, change is finally in motion. It all starts this August, when the Patriots open their preseason at home against the Washington Commanders on Friday, August 8. Tickets are already on sale, starting at fan-friendly prices, through StubHub, Ticketmaster, and Vivid Seats. T…

Two Points Short: Ravens Aim Higher In 2025 Two Points Short: Ravens Aim Higher In 2025
Two Points Short: Ravens Aim Higher In 2025 Two points. That’s what stood between the Baltimore Ravens and the AFC Championship game in 2024.  After a season that rewrote the record books, it ended in heartbreak—a 27–25 loss to the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round. Even becoming the first team in NFL history to notch both 4,000 passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards in a single season wasn’t enough. And for a team built on grit and expectations, that stings. But it also motivates. With preseason tickets already on sale—and regular season seats flying fast—now’s the time for fans to lock in their spots at M&T Bank Stadiu…
