**Kansas State Quarterback’s Family Apologizes for Post-Game Brawl**
In the aftermath of the Kansas State Wildcats’ narrow defeat to Iowa State, quarterback Avery Johnson’s family has publicly apologized for their involvement in a post-game altercation. The incident occurred after the Wildcats lost 24-21 during the Aer Lingus College Football Classic held in Dublin, Ireland.
Avery Johnson had a commendable performance, completing 21 of 30 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns, along with a rushing touchdown. Despite his efforts, including a 65-yard touchdown pass to Jerand Bradley late in the game, the Wildcats were unable to regain possession after scoring.
As the game concluded, social media footage surfaced showing Johnson’s father and brother engaged in a physical confrontation with other fans. The Johnson family described the situation as “senseless bickering” that escalated into an unnecessary fight.
In a statement released through On3 Sports, the Johnson family expressed their regret: “We sincerely apologize for our actions following yesterday’s football game in Ireland. We have resolved our differences and take full responsibility for our actions. We have apologized to our immediate and extended family, and now extend our apologies to Kansas State University, its alumni, and fans. We regret this incident, have learned from it, and are committed to ensuring it doesn’t happen again. Please accept our deepest apologies.”
The Wildcats faced a critical moment early in the fourth quarter when they turned the ball over on downs, allowing Iowa State to capitalize and score on the ensuing drive.
Avery Johnson is currently in his third season as the starting quarterback for Kansas State. Last season, he recorded impressive stats with 2,712 passing yards and 25 touchdown passes, along with 605 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns.
As the Wildcats look to move forward from this incident, the focus will remain on their performance on the field and the lessons learned from this unfortunate event.
