Jeff Reed, the former Pittsburgh Steelers kicker, was allegedly thrown out of Sunday’s Hall of Fame game according to multiple fan accounts. Reed, 36, last kicked in the NFL in 2010 with the 49ers. On Sunday, he was in the stands to watch the Steelers play the Minnesota Vikings. He allegedly got into a fight with a fan who had told him to stop swearing in front of children.

Once outside, a sheriff let him go with a warning and he took a picture with a fan. Allegedly.
