Rams’ Alaric Jackson suspended 2 games for striking Bills LB Bradley Chubb after Monday night game
The NFL has penalized Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson for two games without pay, citing an incident where he struck Buffalo linebacker Bradley Chubb in the face during Monday night's overtime game. The league described Jackson's action as "an act of unsportsmanlike conduct." The altercation occurred after Jackson and Chubb exchanged words following the Bills' 37-34 victory over the Rams.
Jackson had been participating in a jersey swap with another player when Chubb confronted him and then walked away. Jackson pursued Chubb and struck him, knocking Chubb's hat off. The incident followed a domestic violence arrest for Jackson in June and a sexual assault lawsuit filed in 2025. Despite these issues, Jackson is the Rams' starting left tackle and a cornerstone of the offensive line. His absence could be significant, as the team lacks a reliable backup at this crucial position.
