Steelers’ DK Metcalf handed two-game suspension for engaging in altercation with Lions fan
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf has been suspended by the NFL for two games without pay due to an altercation with a Detroit Lions fan. The league states that players are not allowed to confront fans or make any unnecessary physical contact. The fan involved denies using racial slurs during the incident. Former NFL player Chad Ochocinco claims that the fan used a racial slur and disparaged Metcalf’s mother, but the fan’s lawyer denies these allegations. The incident is one of many between professional athletes and fans at live sporting events, including the infamous “Malice at the Palace” incident in 2004.
