nthony Miller should have known better. The Chicago Bears wide receiver was warned specifically about Chauncey Gardner-Johnson heading into the game this weekend, and he simply didn’t listen. In the Bears’ 21-9 Wild Card loss to the New Orleans Saints Sunday, Miller became the team’s second wide receiver to get ejected this season for getting physical with the Saints defensive back.
Gardner-Johnson is a notorious trash talker — his own teammate, wide receiver Michael Thomas, even got disciplined for punching him — and the Bears know this all too well. Receiver Javon Wims get ejected for punching Gardner-Johnson Week 8 after the safety ripped off Wims’ mouthpiece and threw it. So when Miller was ejected in the third quarter of the Wild Card game for pushing Gardner-Johnson, it had to be baffling and beyond frustrating for Chicago.
