After the game, Louisiana First News’ Chessa Bouche called out an ESPN cameraman for shoving her out of the way during the on-field commotion.
“To the @espn camera guy who shoved me after the game bc I was in your way. All you had to do was say something, not physically put your hands on a female who is half your size. There’s a thing called mutual respect in this industry & I’m solo doing the work of multiple people while y’all have crews for every game. Maybe next time just say hey move. Do better man!”

Fans blasted ESPN over the cameraman’s conduct.
“That’s so gross… sorry that happened to you. @espn rectify this immediately. Anything could have happened, that’s how people get hurt! Sounds like you need some courtesy and respect training for your field crews!” commented one fan on X.
We’ll have to wait and see if ESPN apologizes for the cameraman’s alleged actions.
