LANDOVER, Md. — Chicago Bears cornerback Tyrique Stevenson apologized Sunday night after he was seen taunting the Washington crowd seconds before he and his teammates gave up a Hail Mary touchdown with time expired to lose to the Commanders 18-15.
Video posted on social media showed Stevenson pointing toward the stands and raising his arms in the air with his back to the play when the ball was snapped.
He was late to get to the play and then seemingly tipped the ball up for Noah Brown to catch in the end zone. «To Chicago and teammates my apologies for lack of awareness and focus,» Stevenson wrote on social media. «The game ain't over until zeros hit the clock.
Can't take anything for granted. Notes taken, improvement will happen.» To Chicago and teammates my apologies for lack of awareness and focus… The game ain't over until zeros hit the clock.
