HAMMOND: What happened afterward is something I’ll never forget.
Hammond is referring to the sad context of that game. It was in the week with the shooting at the one bar and also the fires. He says this:
Approximately one hour after one of the most exciting, grueling NFL games in Los Angeles history… Goff and Whitworth met with the people who really mattered. After their slow walk across the field ended, the players hugged and talked with first responders and families of shooting victims.
