Mike McCarthy Apologizes After Video Surfaces Of Him Pushing Cameraman After Playoff Loss vs 49ers

Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy was caught pushing a cameraman out of the way following the team's 19-12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

A photographer from The Associated Press captured the reaction. McCarthy appeared to be pushing the camera out of the way as he left Levi's Stadium.





The incident came after the Cowboys' 19–12 loss to the 49ers in the divisional round of the playoffs. Dallas's season ended with a loss, similar to how the team finished last season, with a loss to the 49ers in the wild-card round.

Following the incident, NBC photojournalist Noah Bullard took to Twitter to post the video and explain precisely what transpired. In the tweet, Bullard explained that McCarthy's actions were «more of a hand to the lens» than an actual push.

He also claimed that McCarthy met with him privately afterward to apologize for his actions.
