Most football fans have been paying attention to the 2025 NFL Draft, which took place over the past few days, but believe it or not, football is still being played.
The United Football League (UFL) season is five games into its 10-week season, and a game that took place on Saturday between the Michigan Panthers and St. Louis Battlehawks is making headlines. While most players in this league are hoping to make enough headlines or plays to earn an NFL opportunity, this instance came after the Battlehawks won 32-27.
Panthers' wide receiver Samson Nacua, who is the older brother of Los Angeles Rams All-Pro receiver Puka Nacua, got into an altercation with a fan. What seemed to start as a shouting match between he and the Battlehawks fan, ended in the older Nacua slapping the fan in the face
While it's unclear what was said by the fan or Nacua for that matter, the ending of the situation will undoubtedly turn some heads at the UFL offices.
Neither the league nor the Panthers have commented on the matter yet, but with the video amassing nearly 300,000 views, it's hard to imagine they aren't aware of the situation.

The older Nacua has been quite productive for the Panthers, recording seven catches for 116 yards and one touchdown. Although he signed with the Saints before last season, he was waived in August.
During his college career, Nacua walked on at Utah where he played for four seasons before transferring to BYU for his final year of college football. He finished his college career with 103 catches for 1,344 yards and 14 touchdowns.
