Burfict was suspended for suspended for the first three games for an illegal hit in the preseason. The length of the suspension was in part a result of Burfict's extensive history of disciplinary issues. He was suspended for the first three games of last season for a high hit on Antonio Brown in the previous season's playoffs, and has been fined multiple time throughout his career. Burfict was docked $75,000 last season for stomping on then-Patriots running back LaGarrette Blount.

For his career, Burfict has been fined over $300,000 for on-field incidents (not including lost money due to suspension). This was the first time he has been ejected from a game, however, 

As he was leaving the field, Burfict was seen making a "money hands" gesture to the booing crowd.

Burfict could be facing a substantial punishment, as the league has shown a growing lack of patience with his antics.
