Aqib Talib supposedly told reporter ‘get out my face motherf—er’ after game
Aqib Talib isn’t exactly the friendliest character around. He does interviews and talks to reporters, but he may not have been in the mood to talk with the media after he was knocked out of the AFC Championship Game in the second quarter and watched his team lose 26-16 to the Denver Broncos.
After the game, New York Post NFL reporter Bart Hubbuch tweeted about an interesting confrontation he had with Talib:
In violation of the league's media policy, Aqib Talib said he isn't talking to the media. (cc: NFL office)

Talib told me to "get out my face, motherf*****" and was about to leave the locker room before a Pats official forced him to stop and talk.

People usually don’t say “get out my face, motherf—er” unless they’re prompted in some way, so it’s possible that Hubbuch is leaving out a detail. Who knows? Maybe he jumped into Talib’s face before Talib was ready to speak. Or maybe Talib was just so upset he went off on Hubbuch because he really didn’t want to talk to the media. After the way his season ended, who can really blame him for being upset?
