Monday Night Football this week was marked by a streaker who ran on the field with pink smoke trailing him. The interruption ended when Bobby Wagner of the Los Angeles Rams lowered a shoulder, and dropped the fan for security personnel to take him off the field.
Now TMZ Sports is reporting that the fan has filed a police report over the incident. The man went to the Santa Clara Police Dept. on Tuesday following the Rams vs. 49ers game, cops tell us, and filed the report. A spokesperson did not reveal any further details.
A rep for Direct Action Everywhere — the organization that took credit for the wild scene at Levi’s Stadium — told TMZ that the report stems from a “blatant assault” by 2 Rams players. Along with Wagner, Takkarist McKinley helped out with the tackle.
There were actually 2 protesters at the event, but one of the protesters, a woman, was taken down before she could get onto the playing surface.

According to Direct Action Everywhere, the individuals performed the stunt in order to raise awareness for a trial involving the alleged theft of pigs from a factory farm. The organization said the man suffered a burn injury during the incident.
“Otherwise,” they said in a statement, “they’re a bit beaten up but in good spirits.”
