C.J. Gardner-Johnson ejected for spitting on Brock Bowers in latest controversy involving Bills safety
- On Sunday, Buffalo Bills safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected from the game against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium after allegedly spitting on Brock Bowers.
- A 2025 NFL standard turned spitting from a fines-only offense into a game-missing penalty, and officials disqualified Gardner-Johnson for unsportsmanlike conduct after video showed him spitting toward Bowers's area.
- Legendary Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher called the act "selfish" during the CBS broadcast, while former NFL wide receiver Nate Burleson labeled it "unprofessional" at halftime.
- The ejection left the Bills without a defensive starter for the second half, and Gardner-Johnson may forfeit a game check of about $57,222 if the league confirms a suspension.
- If confirmed, Gardner-Johnson would be the third player in two seasons to lose a game over spitting, joining Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter and Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
