GREEN BAY, Wis. — Giants left tackle Ereck Flowers shoved a reporter in the locker room after the Giants’ 23-16 loss to the Packers on Sunday night.
ESPN beat reporter Jordan Ranaan confirmed to Newsday on Sunday night that he was shoved by Flowers, who had been conducting an interview with two other reporters in front of his locker. Ranaan was not injured. The incident was first reported by NJ.com.
Ranaan had no comment on the incident.
According to the NJ.com report, Ranaan approached Flowers during the interview and the lineman said: “Hey, get out my face, man. Don’t come over here.”
When Ranaan didn’t move, Flowers moved closer to the reporter and said, “You hear me?”
Ranaan replied, “I’m just trying to do my job.”
“Go over there,” Flowers said. He later shoved Ranaan.
Flowers turned toward his locker and Ranaan walked away. The Giants declined comment when asked by NJ Advance Media.
Flowers, the Giants’ first-round pick in 2015, had a poor game against the Packers, surrendering a sack and several other pressures on quarterback Eli Manning. He also was called for a holding penalty.
