Adams, who caught two long touchdowns in the game to finish with 124 yards from three catches, was making his way from the field when he alleges someone holding a tripod ran in front of him as he tried to head down the tunnel.

The receiver pushed the worker to the ground before heading into the locker room.

Minutes later, after the footage circulated widely online, Adams tweeted out an apology, saying "that's not me."
