Denver Broncos TE Noah Fant was pushed out of bounds late in the first half after a reception in Week 17 against the Las Vegas Raiders. He avoided contact with head coach Jon Gruden, but defensive backs coach Jim O’Neil was caught trying to sneak a deliberate elbow at the tight end. Fant threw the ball at O’Neil, missed, then gave the coach a one-hand shove. ‘That’s never happened to me before,’ Fant said Monday, Jan. 4. ‘I thought that was very unprofessional. I’m not sure what coach does that…he went out of his way to shoulder me and he totally turned me around. I feel like I acted accordingly.’
