The incident occurred after the Raiders' 30-29 loss to the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on October 10th, when Adams pushed the man as he walked toward the locker room. 

According to court records obtained by Fox News Digital, Adams was cited for intentionally inflicting "bodily harm" upon the photographer, who suffered "whiplash and head ache." The report also cited a possible concussion for the photographer. 

Adams apologized to the individual on Twitter and in his press conference following the game.

"Before I say anything, I want to apologize to the guy running off the field, and he ran and jumped in front of me," Adams said. "I'm coming off the field and I bumped into him and pushed him. I think he ended up on the ground, so I want to say sorry to him because that was just frustration mixed with him running in front of me and I shouldn't have responded that way and that's how I initially responded. I want to apologize to him for that."
