Chicago Bears tight end Martellus Bennett has been fined and suspended for 'conduct detrimental to the team' after he was involved in a fight at practice with rookie cornerback Kyle Fuller.
General manager Phil Emery announced the news on Tuesday, but he did not reveal the length of the suspension nor the amount that Bennett has been fined.
"Last night, we made a decision to fine and suspend Martellus Bennett for an undetermined length of time. This is a process that we're working with Martellus. We are in contact with him," Emery said, ESPN reports.
It is reported that while attempting to force a fumble off Bennett, Fuller grabbed his teammate and pulled him to the ground before Bennett got up, pushed him and body-slammed the rookie to the floor.
