Bears’ DT Akiem Hicks ejected for shoving an official

The Chicago Bears will be without defensive tackle Akiem Hicks for the remainder of Sunday’s game vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Following an interception, Hicks and a Tampa player were involved in an altercation. During the altercation, Hicks shoved an official and was subsequently ejected.

This will certainly yield a fine and could well end up in a suspension for Hicks.

The first half has otherwise been a dream for Chicago. Mitchell Trubisky had five touchdown passes well before halftime en route to a 38-3 lead. But this will certainly put a cloud over things for the Bears.
