Ex-Saints Star Ejected for Spitting on Raiders

Buffalo Bills defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected from Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders after spitting on Raiders tight end Brock Bowers. The altercation occurred after a play when Gardner-Johnson engaged in an exchange with Bowers. Television cameras captured the incident, which immediately provoked a confrontation from Raiders center Tyler Linderbaum and led to the defensive back's disqualification from the contest.

CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore confirmed on the broadcast that the ejection was the correct ruling by officials. The writer notes that Gardner-Johnson, a former New Orleans Saints fourth-round draft pick who has also played for Philadelphia, Detroit, Houston, and Chicago, could potentially face further disciplinary punishment from the NFL.
