A sideline reporter’s job can be extremely fun, but also extremely dangerous, especially in football.
NFL Network’s Jewish reporter Ian Rapoport was on camera for the Sunday night football match between the Green Bay Packers and the Houston Texans, when a football accidentally hit him, causing to make a ridiculous face.
Since Rapoport is okay, it is okay for us to laugh, especially because he was such a good sport and laughed about it immediately after.
The question of who actually threw the ball remains a mystery, though I have to put my bets on Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, since he really accurate and wanted to shush the media prior to the Packers victory, which proved to be successful in Repoport’s case.
There’s also a gif!
