The Philadelphia Eagles fan seen on a viral video hurling vicious, abusive comments at a female Green Bay Packers fan is defending himself after being fired from his “diversity, equity, and inclusion” job.
Eagles fan Ryan Caldwell has released a statement about the incident and his personal plight. He is insisting there are “two sides” to the story of his distempered attack on a woman during the NFC Wild Card game on January 12. “What began as banter with two Packers fans sitting near me escalated to something more serious, and I said things that were unacceptable. In the heat of the moment, I chose unforgiving words to address one of the fans, Ms. Ally Keller.”
“The video clip circulating online does not reflect the full context of what transpired, and my actions were not without provocation. I will live with this experience, and I am certainly paying a personal price. For those who don’t know me, this incident does not reflect my values or the respect I have for others and is not indicative of the person I am,” Caldwell insisted.
