Jaguars DE Travon Walker ejected for throwing punch after FG

LAS VEGAS -- Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Travon Walker was disqualified in the third quarter after punching Raiders offensive lineman Stone Forsythe following a Raiders field goal.

Forsythe was penalized for unnecessary roughness and Walker's penalty and disqualification offset Forsythe's penalty following Daniel Carlson's 24-yard field goal that gave the Raiders a 9-6 lead with 6:29 remaining.

Head coach Liam Coen said he did not see what happened after the play and didn't know exactly what Walker did to draw the ejection.

"He responded to what he mentioned was something, and they're always going to get the second guy and it's just the way it is and we can't have it," Coen said. "We can't have that. And he knows that.

"Frustrating moment for sure. But those are the things we have to avoid as a team, as an organization because all it does is make us a little bit handcuffed."

Walker is playing with a brace on his left hand as he continues to recover from a left wrist injury that required surgery. He missed the Week 5 game against Kansas City after undergoing surgery on his wrist. He played in Weeks 6 and 7 with a club on his left hand.

The Jaguars went on to beat the Raiders in overtime, 30-29.
