Jaguars' Leonard Fournette suspended one game after ejection for fighting
The NFL has suspended Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette for one game without pay following his ejection for fighting with Buffalo Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson on Sunday.
The league said Fournette violated its unsportsmanlike conduct and unnecessary roughness rules and as a result will miss Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts at TIAA Bank Field.
Monday's announcement did not mention any discipline for Lawson, who was also ejected after the incident in Buffalo's 24-21 win. Fournette has three business days to appeal the suspension.
