The Los Angeles Rams have suspended offensive lineman Alaric Jackson for punching an opponent, while kicker Harrison Mevis has been released by the club in the aftermath of the team’s defeat by the Buffalo Bills.
Jackson, who plays on the Rams’ offensive line, was disciplined over the incident involving an opposing player. The supplied information does not state the length of his suspension or provide further details about when or where the punch occurred.
Mevis has also left the Rams after being released by the club. No reason for the decision has been given beyond its timing after the loss to Buffalo.
The two developments represent separate consequences for the Rams following the defeat. Jackson’s suspension affects the team’s playing personnel, while Mevis’s release leaves the club without the kicker named in the report.
Further details about Jackson’s suspension and the Rams’ plans following Mevis’s departure were not provided.
