Throwing helmets is not allowed.

The CFL is suspending wide receiver Duke Williams one game for ripping off defensive back Shaquille Richardson’s helmet and throwing it at him during a pregame warmup. Additionally, the league fined Richardson for instigating the incident with Williams and punching Williams during the game.

He allegedly spit on before the helmet toss.

“Such pre-game hostilities are unacceptable and the use of a helmet as a weapon is especially dangerous,” CFL Commissioner Randy Ambrosie said in a statement. “Neither is to be tolerated.”

Williams has spent time with the Rams and Bills in the, along with the Edmonton Eskimos of the CFL.

Definitely not the worst helmet toss.
