Jamar Taylor ejected for smacking Breshad Perriman

Denver Broncos cornerback Jamar Taylor was ejected from Saturday night’s game against the Cleveland Browns for extending his arm with a slap at Breshad Perriman.

Cleveland had the ball for a 2nd-and-17 and handed the ball off for a short gain. During the play, Taylor and Perriman got into it and traded some physical play. Both players were called for personal fouls, while Taylor was ejected.

Many thought the ejection for Taylor was excessive.

The ejection made the Broncos even more thin at cornerback. Brendan Langley was declared out with a concussion, while Bradley Roby exited the game with a cut in his mouth.
