Report: Decision on Javon Wims discipline 'likely' to come Monday
The Chicago Bears could be without wide receiver Javon Wims for at least a little while following his actions against a New Orleans Saints player on Sunday.
Wims was kicked out of the game and now the NFL is evaluating Wims' actions for a possible suspension. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, a decision should come on Monday.
The 26-year-old punched Saints cornerback Chauncey Gardner-Johnson twice in his helmet. There was no immediate goading and Wims hit Gardner-Johnson by surprise, though they did have a few minor meetings earlier in the game.
Wims' punches stirred both benches, and it's possible that other players will be fined.
Wims was a seventh-round pick by the Bears in 2018 out of Georgia. In 28 career games, he's accumulated 27 receptions for 253 yards and two touchdowns.
