The NFL has officially dropped the hammer on Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch who was ejected from last night’s Thursday Night game for getting off the bench and shoving a ref during an on-field scuffle between the Raiders and the Chiefs. Lynch will be forced to sit out one game for violating the league’s “unsportsmanlike conduct” policy.

Lynch got off lucky but he’s probably not happy about losing a game check.
$79,411: Cost to Marshawn Lynch for his conduct last night, the equivalent of one game check lost.
