Clowney called Philadelphia fans the "worst fans in the world" after the game.
That's a great player over there for their team and for their organization.
I hope he's OK.
Like I said, I didn't intend to hurt him.

I thought it was just a small hit, but everybody was going crazy on the sidelines.
I was just trying to finish the play, but it happened.

Clowney was not penalized for the hit, but Eagles fans and players were outraged after seeing the replay.
I just told him, 'man, that's a dirty play.'
... I just kept reminding him, 'come on, man, stay off my quarterback.'
