The Free Press tracked down the fan in the stands, who said he was "a little shocked. Like everyone’s talking to me. I’m a little rattled, but I just want the Lions to win, baby."

"My words don’t matter because it was on camera," they added.

When initially asked what his name was, the fan said, "My name is 'Biggest Detroit Lions Fan Ever that got attacked by DeKaylin Zecharius Metcalf.'"

After getting further pressed, the fan said his name was Ryan Kennedy and that he's from Pinckney, Michigan.

“What, my full name isn’t is DeKaylin Zecharius Metcalf," Kennedy said. "He doesn’t like his government name. I called him that and then he grabbed me and ripped my shirt. I’m a little shocked. Like everyone’s talking to me. I’m a little rattled, but I just want the Lions to win, baby."

Whelp…. Here it is. Same guy that started the same shite with DK in Seattle. Definitely looking for a payday.

Breaking News: Steelers WR DK Metcalf Is Suspended 2 Games For Striking a Lions Fan During Sundays Game. Metcalf Alleges That The Lions Fan Called Him a Racial Slur and Made a Disrespectful Comment About His Mother. The Fan Named Ryan Kennedy Denied The Allegations and Said He Called DK By His Government Name - DeKaylin Zecharius Metcalf -. These 2 Do Have History Going Back To Last Year When DK Was With The Seahawks And He Had To Call Security On That Same Fan. Metcalf Will Appeal The Suspension.

Ha,we have a cottage right by Pinckney.

Is Michigan the only state to use the term "cottage"?

TigersJump•17 hours

Yeah some fan is looking for a payday. This is the second time this same guy has stirred up shite with DK. Highly doubt it was because he called him by his name. Reports were last time he did it was because he called him the N word. I’m sure it’ll come out that he probably did the same again looking for that response.

They all claim the n word to avoid repercussions. I'm fatigued

BigC LSU•15 hours

Def fatigued of people like you overusing the phrase "fatigued."

HagaDaga•12 hours

So are you saying assault is the legal response to being called something??

What a weird dynamic. Pro athletes yet a random guy knows your personal name, and can basically say what ever he wants and get away with it, while you can't do anything. Idk. Sports fans can be really cringe.

HagaDaga•12 hours

Your post is really cringe. It's like you just started your sports fandom journey recently.

should be fired immediately and should be on list of non hirable...

Supposedly, DK reported this same fan to Seahawks security last year. The fan taunted him with Pittsburgh-related comments and insulted both him (using the "N" word) and his mother. The behavior was unacceptable. DK probably shouldn’t have approached the fan, but the fan’s actions were still out of line.

Lou Loomis•16 hours

Yeah right. You really believe this guy called him a racial slur. Everybody around him would have run to the first security guard, cop, tv camera, to self righteously report the horrific deed.

Did he use the hard ‘r’?
