The NFL has completed an investigation into an incident where a fan spilled a drink on Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown, deeming it accidental. The incident took place in Carolina on Sunday, after the Bengals defeated the Carolina Panthers 34-24.

Brown was doused with a drink while walking into the tunnel after the game. A video of the incident went viral and prompted an investigation from the league into whether it was intentional.

If the NFL had found that the fan had spilled the drink maliciously, the league could have chosen to punish the fan, including the possibility of handing down a lifetime ban from the stadium.

Brown ran for 80 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday’s win, also picking up two receptions for 12 yards.

The second-year running back told ESPN on Thursday that he was glad that the drink wasn’t poured on purpose.

“It would suck if people are doing stuff with intent,” Brown told ESPN. “Honestly happier it’s a Bengals fan, too. I’m just glad they got the gloves at the end of the day.”

He also said he might not toss gloves or other gear in future games, to avoid potentially getting doused again.

“Maybe I got to hand it up now,” Brown said. “I’m not going to throw it up anymore.”
