If the guy wants to file a civil case, Adams' lawyer should seek indemnification from the Chiefs and NFL Security because their negligence created a situation where players were not protected from a guy that did not care to watch where he was going.

I will disagree with you on this. If you are walking down the street and someone walks in front of you and you stop and forcefully push them down and they crack their skull on the sidewalk, you are most likely going to jail if they find you. It is battery.
Also refs, players, and the media are all walking around before, during and after the game and you don't see players shoving people around. Adams knows what he did was wrong hence the quick apology. He probably should get a multiple game suspension or similar to what a player would get if they struck a fan during the game.
