Bears wide receiver Javon Wims was kicked out of Sunday’s game, and he may miss more playing time beyond that.

The league’s disciplinary arm is evaluating Wims’ actions for a possible suspension, and a decision should come today, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Wims punched Saints cornerback Chauncey Gardner-Johnson twice in his helmet. There was no immediate provocation and Wims took Gardner-Johnson by surprise, although there had been minor skirmishes between them earlier in the game.

Wims’ actions set off a melee between the Bears and Saints, and it’s likely that other players will be fined.
