Ouch. That had to hurt.
Rams linebacker Bobby Wagner leveled a fan who brought a red flare on to the field in the second quarter of Monday night’s contest against the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium.
After the 49ers forced a punt on back-to-back sacks of Matt Stafford, the fan ran the field and evaded security briefly before Wagner trucked him around the 35-yard line near the Rams sideline.
The fan eventually got escorted off the field by security, but that musta hurt to get hit by the All-Pro linebacker.
The Manning brothers Peyton and Eli had fun with the incident while doing their 'ManningCast' on ESPN2.
This was actually the second attempt by a fan to bring a flare onto the field Monday night. During the first quarter, a fan tried to run on the field with a red flare but was stopped before they could make a scene. The flare appeared to leave a burn mark on the field that remained for the rest of the game.
Earlier this season, the Rams’ Week 1 matchup vs. the Buffalo Bills was also interrupted by a flare from an animal rights activist.
