Alaric Jackson’s suspension for punching Bills defensive end Bradley Chubb has been reduced from two games to a single game after an appeal. The incident occurred in the Monday‑night matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the Los Angeles Rams.
Jackson, a defensive end for the Rams, was initially handed a two‑game ban for the violent contact with Chubb during the game. The NFL’s disciplinary committee later reviewed the case following the team's appeal and decided to cut the suspension by one game.
The reduction means Jackson will miss only the next scheduled game, rather than the two that were originally imposed. The decision was announced by the league’s officiating and disciplinary staff.
Bradley Chubb, who was the target of the punch, was not reported to have sustained serious injury. No further disciplinary action was taken against him in connection with the incident.
