The Cincinnati Bengals will be without Vontaze Burfict for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans after the linebacker was ejected for contacting an official.

After receiving an unnecessary roughness penalty midway through the second quarter, Burfict made physical contact with an official just two plays later near the Bengals' goal line. That contact earned Burfict the ejection, who appeared to get into a verbal altercation with fans on his way out of the stadium.

Burfict was suspended for three games earlier this season for a hit on Kansas City Chiefs' Anthony Sherman during a preseason game.
