Longtime Detroit Lions fan Fahad Yousif regrets his impassioned exchange with the Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur on Dec. 5.

The Lions escorted Yousif out of the stadium during the game. The front office rescinded his season tickets via an email on Dec. 9, and he is hoping that can change. Yousif has talked with multiple media outlets since his on-field incident occurred.
