EJECTED today in the second quarter of Oakland's game for a helmet shot to Indianapolis tight-end Jack Doyle.
It will be his fourteenth trip to the NFL discipline blotter.
The NFL has not suspended a single player this season so far, although it has had multiple reasons to in just the first three weeks.
A clear line-up job. This should be the fourth consecutive season he's been suspended at some point, if I have this right. It may even be more.KICK VONTAZE BURFICT OUT FOREVER!!! pic.twitter.com/91IQghasuf— Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) September 29, 2019
EDIT TO ADD: A one-game suspension for Burfict would not only cost the Raiders an $80,000 suspension fine under the Club Remittance Policy for their third suspension, it would also bring them most of the way to a $50,000 accumulated fine situation -- because not only would they be penalized under the suspension rule, but the lost salary (since it's on the field) also would count (up to $50,000) against their fine number as well.
