On Sunday night, the Green Bay Packers had the unenviable task of facing off against AFC East juggernaut the Buffalo Bills.

The pressure may have been too much for Packers first-round pick Quay Walker.

After making a tackle along the Bills' sidelines, Walker pushed tight end Zach Davidson, a member of the Bills' practice squad, who appeared to be trying to help the rookie up off the turf. Walker was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct and disqualified from the game after a referee huddle.

The Packers selected Walker with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Georgia.

Walker has impressed in his first season, compiling 52 tackles and a forced fumble in eight games. Heading into this week's matchup with the Bills, Walker was coming off arguably his best game as a pro, tallying 13 tackles and two quarterback hits against the Washington Commanders.
