NFL star Davante Adams lost his cool on earlier this week when his team, the Las Vegas Raiders, lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Footage captured shortly after the match showed Adams walking off the field and shoving a bystander - who, as it turns out, was actually an official photographer - to the floor.

Said bystander is pretty p**sed off at Adams for his actions, and has now reportedly filed a police report against the football star.

Watch the shove take place below:

According to TMZ, the photographer suffered shove-related injuries and was even taken to hospital.

The man approached police with a complaint at around 10:30 pm and detectives have said they will ‘coordinate with the applicable city or state prosecutor to determine any applicable charges’.

UNILAD has approached Kansas City police for comment.

Speaking in the locker room after the game, Adams issued an apology, telling media: "I want to apologise to the guy. There was some guy running off the field, and he ran, like, jumped in front of me coming off the field and I bumped into him, kind of pushed him, and he ended up on the ground.

"So I wanted to say sorry to him for that because that was just frustration mixed with him literally just running in front of me. I shouldn't have responded that way, but that's how I initially responded. So, I want to apologise to him for that."

He also tweeted an apology that read: “Sorry to the guy I pushed over after the game. Obviously very frustrated at the way the game ended and when he ran in front of me as I exited that was my reaction and I felt horrible immediately. That's not me..MY APOLOGIES man hope you see this.”

Raider head coach Josh McDaniels also addressed the incident in his press conference, saying: “I know that was an unfortunate situation.

"We obviously don't want any of our guys to be doing anything like that. He knows that. He's very well aware of that."

"But I know the person. I don't think there was any intent behind it on his part. But whatever they [the NFL] ask of us, whatever they need from us, obviously, we'll comply."

Fox Sports reported that the NFL is also looking into the incident and the 29-year-old could face a possible suspension.
