Remember that dude who ran to the court in the middle of Game 4 between the Washington Wizards and the Philadelphia 76ers? Apparently, he was not the only one who got people's attention, as even the security guard who ran after the out-of-control fan and made the tackle, turned not a few heads, including that of Washington Football Team head coach Ron Rivera.
Rivera was at the Capital One Arena to watch the game and even joked about contacting the security personnel who was responsible for containing the “play” he made on the fan.
Via Ethan Cadeaux of NBC Washington:
Ron Rivera was at the Wizards game on Sunday when a fan rushed the court and was tackled by a security guard.
Rivera on it: “It was a heck of a tackle.” Then he joked “we've considered reaching out but we're not there yet.”
Ron Rivera can't be that frustrated at his stop unit that he will go through the lengths of inviting a security guard to become an NFL player.
For one, the Washington Football Team were among the best defensive teams last season, when they finished fifth in scoring defense and fifth in total defense as well. Moreover, this isn't The Replacements. There isn't a player strike happening that would force NFL teams to go full 1950s and hire players with odd jobs on the side, right?
