The CFL is suspending wide receiver Duke Williams one game for ripping off defensive back Shaquille Richardson’s helmet and throwing it at him during a pregame warmup. Additionally, the league fined Richardson for instigating the incident with Williams and punching Williams during the game.
“Such pre-game hostilities are unacceptable and the use of a helmet as a weapon is especially dangerous,” CFL Commissioner Randy Ambrosie said in a statement. “Neither is to be tolerated.”
