- Stadium security ejected the spectator, and a Bills official told ESPN the person is indefinitely banned from Bills and NFL stadiums.
- Jackson apologized on Wednesday and said "just chill next time," noting he discussed the incident with GM Eric DeCosta; coach John Harbaugh publicly defended Jackson’s reaction.
