One of the wilder sports stories of the year came full circle on Wednesday when San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. met with the media, and it was absolutely worth it.
In case you missed it the past week, Reds outfielder Tommy Pham was suspended for three games after he slapped the Giants Joc Pederson before the series opener in Cincinnati. It turned out that the entire altercation stemmed from a fantasy football argument about IR etiquette (and some GIFs about the Padres that Pederson sent into a group chat).
The NFL player that was name dropped in the whole ordeal was Wilson, and he couldn’t hold back the smile when he was finally asked about it. His reaction was great.
