Game official Roy Ellison — who was placed on administrative leave after incidents that occurred between himself and Buffalo Bills’ defensive end Jerry Hughes both during and after the Buffalo Bills’ Week 13 loss to the Miami Dolphins — has received additional punishment from the NFL.
Ellison was fined one game check ($9,300) and reinstated him from his time on administrative leave after the league reviewed details about the confrontation that ensued between Ellison and Hughes after Buffalo’s 21-17 loss in South Beach.
After the game ended, Hughes went past the team’s locker room to confront Ellison as he was entering the officials’ changing area, alleging that Ellison called him a “bitch” during the course of the game.
