Rams offensive lineman Alaric Jackson is expected to be suspended for two games by the NFL after punching Buffalo Bills linebacker Bradley Chubb during a post-game altercation following Monday night's "Monday Night Football" game between the teams at SoFi Stadium. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported this, noting that the suspension has not been officially communicated yet and could still be appealed.
