UPDATE3:05 PM PT -- Bobby Wagner's head coach, Sean McVay, says he's not even flinching over the police report ... telling media members Wednesday, "We all know where Bobby's intentions were, and I support Bobby Wagner."
NO ILL WILL
Los Angeles Rams
"That's where I'm at with that," he added. "I don't think anybody would disagree." 2:40 PM PT -- Wagner spoke with reporters about the incident on Wednesday ... saying, "It's behind me." "Can't really focus on it. I'm more concerned about the security guard that was hurt trying to chase him and the people that was ... we don't know what that is and you just gotta do what you gotta do."
ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES
Wagner added he's aware of the police report ... but further explained his actions. "You just never know," he added. "You never know, like, people run on the field for no reason sometimes and again, I'm pretty sure it's gonna keep happening, but you never know what that person got in they pocket, in they hands, whatever. Kind of like what I said after the game so, you know, there's consequences for your actions." As for the guard, TMZ Sports is told it was the 49ers' director of security and he's fine. The fan who was leveled by Bobby Wagner after running onto the field during "Monday Night Football" this week has now filed a police report over the incident ... TMZ Sports has learned.
The man went to the Santa Clara Police Dept. on Tuesday following the Rams vs. 49ers game, cops tell us, and filed the report. A spokesperson did not reveal any further details.
A rep for Direct Action Everywhere -- the org. that took credit for the wild scene at Levi's Stadium -- told us the report stems from a "blatant assault" by two Rams players.
BOBBLED BY BOBBY
As we reported, two protesters jumped railing at the stadium during the second quarter of the contest ... and armed with pink smoke bombs, they attempted to disrupt the action on the field.
One of the protesters, a woman, was taken down before she could get onto the playing surface. The other protester, though, evaded security long enough to take a jaunt on the gridiron.
The guy juked stadium staffers for several moments ... but as he headed toward the Rams' sideline, Wagner -- with some help from teammate Takkarist McKinley -- flattened him.

According to Direct Action Everywhere, the individuals performed the stunt in order to raise awareness for a trial involving the alleged theft of pigs from a factory farm. The org. said the man suffered a burn injury during the incident.
"Otherwise," they said in a statement, "they're a bit beaten up but in good spirits."
For his part, Wagner said after the game he jumped in to help security for safety reasons.
"You don't know what that fan got or what they're doing," the star linebacker said.
Wagner has not been arrested or charged with any crime.

So “fan” rushes on football field, which you’re not supposed to do, is stopped, and then files charges? That’s some nerve. Can protester be charged?
If Wagner got a good shot at him I would say this fan doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Just like his lawsuit.
Yes, they got a 'ticket'.......
The fan can be sued for a number of reasons, including the costs for additional security for morons like him.
If I were a judge, I’d just dismiss the case on the grounds of assumption of risk.
If you step out on the football field, you are liable to get hit/tackled. You assumed that risk by going out onto the field. Don’t like it? Keep your ass off the field.
“You don’t know what that fan got or what they’re doing,” the star linebacker said”
I’d have to agree with that.
If that idiot had a smoke bomb he could have had some sort of explosive device just as easily.
If you’re so inclined google Mike “mad dog” Curtis - middle linebacker for the old Baltimore Colts.
See what he did to a fan who ran on the field between plays and tried to steal the ball.
Once again, two Libtard recipients of white privilege who are racists. Whodathunkit.
It wasn’t even that big of a hit. McVay did little more than stand up and to an intercept and the guy bounced off.
I thought the refs penalized The Rams for Roughing the tresPasser.
No, the tresspassers were penalized for Delay Of Game..................🤦♂️
I saw the clip of this and I think they should have hit him harder.
Too bad punk, it’s a shame he wasn’t maimed.
If this happens at a pro wrestling event the whole crew jumps in to make sure he doesn’t do it again.
I was breaking the law and someone stopped me. I’d like to report a crime...
Too bad it wasn’t a ‘Pile On’!....................😎
it’s a shame he doesn’t have a couple of broken ribs!................😉
Well, it was a mostly peaceful protest... except for the smoke bomb that burned the ‘victim.’
