CJ Gardner-Johnson has been suspended by the NFL

Gardner-Johnson got into it with Brock Bowers, and the exchange culminated in the veteran trying to spit at the Raider tight end ( video here). It was spotted by officials and Gardner-Johnson was subsequently ejected, so the suspension comes on top of that.

A one-game suspension is the usual punishment for this sort of incident, including when there is a technicality. Perhaps Gardner-Johnson’s biggest mistake was not making the move earlier in the game.
