Fox News Digital asked Pittman on Wednesday if he had heard anything about the man he bumped into.
“I got an update from other people,” said Pittman, who also talked about his partnership with Oral-B. “We’re still working on it; we have a great media team in our building. They said they would get his name for me so I could personally reach out and check on him.
“It was a scary thing for everyone involved, but they said he walked away under his own power. He’s doing well, so that’s good.”
NFL players always go the extra mile to help their team win games, but sometimes the heat of competition results in sideline spectators suffering collateral damage. This was one of the scariest blows between a player and game day staff, but it’s good to hear the security guard seems okay.

Had Pittman gotten six points, it would have been rookie Riley Leonard’s first touchdown pass of his young career. But it ultimately didn’t work in a 36-19 loss that saw starting quarterback Daniel Jones out for the season due to an Achilles tear in the first quarter.
As a result, the Colts added 44-year-old Philip Rivers, who came out of retirement to play in the NFL for the last time in 2020, Pittman’s rookie year in the league.
