Rams' Alaric Jackson Expected to Be Suspended for Punching Bills' Chubb, NFL Rumors Reveal Details

The Los Angeles Rams are reportedly likely to be without left tackle Alaric Jackson for the next two games.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Tuesday that Jackson is expected to be suspended for two games after he punched Buffalo Bills pass-rusher Bradley Chubb following Monday night's game.

With players gathering on the field after Buffalo's 37-34 victory, there was an altercation that resulted in Jackson throwing a punch and Chubb's teammates restraining him.

The situation even appeared to catch Josh Allen's attention during a postgame interview:

ESPN's Sarah Barshop noted Jackson was exchanging jerseys with Bills defensive lineman Deone Walker when Chubb appeared to say something. The offensive lineman responded by approaching Chubb and punching him.

"Somebody swung, but hey, that's not on me to tell who," Chubb told reporters in the aftermath. "There's cameras out there. I just know, you know what I'm saying, I'm just ready for next week."

He also said, "It was an emotional game. Tempers got flared. But it is what it is. We flushed it and we onto next week."

It was a back-and-forth game, as there were a combined five touchdowns in the fourth quarter alone with Allen and Matthew Stafford exchanging impressive plays and directing drives. It seemed like Buffalo would win when James Cook's touchdown and the ensuing extra point put it up seven with 1:39 remaining, but the Rams responded with a 63-yard touchdown drive of their own to force overtime.

Overtime featured Cook losing a fumble, the Rams' game-winning field-goal attempt being blocked and Tyler Bass connecting on his field goal on the ensuing possession to win it.

For his part, Chubb finished with two tackles when facing Jackson and the rest of the Rams offensive line. Neither defense likely felt great about their efforts on Monday, although the dominant offenses deserve plenty of credit.

The Rams will face the Arizona Cardinals and Las Vegas for the next two games when Jackson is suspended. Look for David Quessenberry to potentially fill in for the starter until the suspension ends.
