This week’s edition of Monday Night Football wasn’t too memorable over its 60 minutes of game time. After the final whistle, though, 49ers receiver Jauan Jennings and Panthers safety Tre’von Moehrig provided some fireworks in the form of a brief postgame scuffle.
The two players got into a heated altercation as both sides met to shake hands after San Francisco’s 20-9 win. Jennings went up to Moehrig and took a swipe at him before he was swiftly escorted away from the scene.
Both players explained their respective sides of the story postgame. 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan spoke to the moment, too, mentioning that Moehrig “took a cheap shot” at Jennings.
The receiver had some colorful commentary to end his postgame media scrum as he poked some fun at the moment.
Moehrig explained his actions and the boiled tensions by saying Jennings was “talking crazy.”
“It just manifested,” he said. “He wanted to do some stuff after the play, talking crazy, so that’s all there is to it.”
We’ll see if any discipline comes down from the NFL as the league reviews the heated moment between Jennings and Moehrig.
