Michael Bennett explodes at reporter following Seahawks-Falcons game

ATLANTA — Seahawks defensive lineman Michael Bennett, frustrated during the game at Atlanta offensive linemen for what he appeared to think were dirty plays, exploded at a reporter after the Seahawks’ 36-20 loss to the Falcons.

Bennett became upset when a reporter asked Bennett about not getting a pass rush against Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. After Bennett said that “Matt Ryan is obviously the MVP of the NFL this year and made great plays,” a reporter said to Bennett, “You weren’t able to get as much pressure on him as you were…”

“We got a lot of pressure,” Bennett said.
