Everyone had a word or two to say about Adams' actions. Most of them were negative. Former President Donald Trump's favorite author, Nick Adams, had an egregious take on the matter. He said that Adams should be banned from football and arrested for attempted murder.

Adams tweeted:

"Devante Adams should be dropped in all formats in fantasy football, banned from the NFL, and arrested for attempted murder."

While Adams will likely face fines and a possible suspension, an attempted murder charge seems too extreme and over the top. However, the photographer did file charges with the police, and the incident is currently under investigation.

Adams apologized and said that he responded out of frustration and shouldn't have done what he did.

Adams said:

"I wanted to say sorry to him for that because that was just frustration mixed with him literally just running in front of me. I shouldn't have responded that way, but that's how I initially responded. So, I want to apologize to him for that."

Although the action is not justified, Adams has every right to be frustarated. The Raiders are 1-4 following the loss and gave up a 17-0 lead. Adams recorded three receptions for 124 yards and two touchdowns. He had touchdown receptions of 58 yards and 48 yards.
