Former Lions DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson Ejected For Spitting

Former Detroit Lions safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected from the Bills-Raiders game after spitting toward Brock Bowers. Watch the incident.

Former Detroit Lions defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected from Sunday's Week 6 game against the Las Vegas Raiders for spitting at tight end Brock Bowers. The incident occurred during a confrontation between the two teams, with Gardner-Johnson and several Raiders players exchanging words. Following the ejection, the Bills were left without one of their defensive backs for the remainder of the game.

Gardner-Johnson's latest controversy echoes his previous on-field issues, including a controversial wardrobe choice during Philadelphia's Super Bowl celebration. The NFL may review the play for additional discipline, though no further punishment has been announced as of now. Gardner-Johnson's history of disciplinary issues could result in additional fines or suspensions for both he and the Buffalo Bills.
