ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Miami Dolphins rookie defensive lineman Christian Wilkins was ejected for a throwing a punch at Bills offensive linemen Cody Ford less than a minute into his team's contest against the Buffalo Bills.
Wilkins got into an extended push-and-shove battle with Ford following the second play of the game. Then Wilkins proceeded to swing and connect with Ford's helmet. He was immediately penalized and disqualified from the game.
Wilkins' ejection is the eighth disqualification of a NFL player from a game during the 2019 regular season, tied for the most through seven weeks over the last 15 seasons.
