Rams' Alaric Jackson Suspended Two Games After Postgame Punch

The two-game suspension removes a starting Rams tackle for upcoming games.

Overview

  • Jackson punched Bills linebacker Bradley Chubb after Monday night's overtime loss at SoFi Stadium, hitting Chubb as he walked away from the field.
  • The NFL informed Jackson in a disciplinary letter that the act was an "aggressive, non-football act entirely unwarranted" and suspended him for two games.
  • Chubb described the exchange as an emotional reaction and told reporters he "let him swing," and both teams have not reported further public discipline beyond the league action.
  • Reporting notes Jackson did not comment after the incident and that he has prior off-field incidents, including a June arrest and a 2024 two-game personal-conduct suspension.
  • The suspension forces the Rams to replace a starting offensive tackle for their next two games and sharpens debate over how consistently the league enforces conduct rules.
