Bills fans raise over $60K for diabetes to support Ravens player who dropped crucial pass
Buffalo Bills fans may be known for eccentric antics, but instead of jumping on tables this week, they've banded together to jump to the support of an opposing player after he was subjected to a wave of online hate.
During the crucial playoff game on Sunday between Bills and the Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore tight end Mark Andrews fumbled and then dropped a two-point conversion that would have tied the game in the fourth quarter. Ultimately, the Bills won 27-25 and will be facing off against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday for the AFC Championship Game.
Andrews appeared heartbroken after the loss and video showed Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson consoling him after the game.
"We're a team," Jackson said. "It's all of us, bruh, it ain't just you."

But Ravens fans expressed their anger anyway, flooding Andrews' Instagram account with resentful comments. His last post was for National Diabetes Awareness Month in November, where Andrews discussed the continuous glucose monitoring system he uses to treat his Type 1 diabetes.
