Buffalo Bills safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected from the Week 6 NFL game against the Las Vegas Raiders following a second-quarter brawl.
Match officials ejected the veteran player after opposing players complained that he allegedly spat on the back of Raiders tight end Brock Bowers' helmet.
The incident drew widespread criticism from commentators and analysts regarding sportsmanship, adding to Gardner-Johnson's previous history of unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.
