Packers fan who prevented Joe Mixon’s Lambeau Leap was not the fan who was ejected

GREEN BAY − The Green Bay Packers fan who prevented Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon from doing a Lambeau Leap was allowed to return to his seat after police questioned him, the team told PackersNews.

The fan, sitting in the first row of the South end zone, shoved Mixon back down to the field twice when the running back tried to do the Packers’ famous Lambeau Leap after a second-quarter touchdown Sunday. Video shows the fan grabbing Mixon’s facemask.
