Jaguars' Travon Walker Ejected After Throwing Punch at Raiders' Stone Forsythe

Jacksonville Jaguars pass rusher Travon Walker was ejected from the third quarter Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders after throwing a punch.

The incident occurred after Daniel Carlson made a 24-yard field goal to give the Raiders a 9-6 lead with six and a half minutes left in the quarter.

Walker and Raiders offensive tackle Stone Forsythe were given offsetting penalties on the play.

Walker is playing in his fourth season with the Jaguars since the franchise selected him at the top of the 2022 draft.

After back-to-back 10-sack seasons, Walker recorded two sacks in his first three games of the 2025 season.

He then suffered a Week 4 wrist injury that led to him undergoing surgery on Sept. 29 and missing a Week 5 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Walker returned with a club cast on his left arm, then recorded two tackles and one quarterback hit while playing limited snaps in Weeks 6 and 7 prior to the Jags' Week 8 bye.

The pass rusher has slimmed down to a wrist brace in time for Week 9. Walker threw the punch with his right hand, not his braced left wrist.

The Week 9 incident isn't the first time Walker has been penalized for unnecessary roughness. He was flagged last November after throwing a punch during a Week 10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings last season.

Walker was not ejected from that game, although he was later assessed a $11,817 fine.

The Jaguars exercised Walker's fifth-year club option for the 2026 season in April. KPRC2's Aaron Wilson reported at the time the Jags are "expected to ultimately sign him to a huge long-term deal."
