You can blame the victim for clumsiness all you want, but it is highly improbable that he orchestrated the incident. You can dismiss Adams' behavior all you want, but it is beyond dispute that he did shove the guy to the ground. Furthermore, he walked away after doing so. He claims that he felt immediate regret, but he failed to demonstrate that regret with any action such as helping the guy up.
The criminal legal consequences should be pretty minor. The civil legal consequences should be fairly minor. However, the NFL has a long history of punishing players for making the NFL look bad and if there is one thing certain about all of this, it is the fact that he made the NFL look bad.

If he's found guilty of even a minor infraction, the NFL will likely automatically suspend him.
