PHILADELPHIA, PA - During the 4th quarter of the Soul vs Predators game, CB James Romain and WR Greg Carr got into a scuffle that resulted in discipline for both players.
Predators' QB Jason Boltus threw an incomplete pass to Carr prior to the altercation. Soul's CB James Romain walked over and said some words to Carr that must have triggered Carr to respond back. Not to mention, Soul's CB Rayshaun Kizer came over an added words that caused even more controversy.
The refs then grouped up to discuss the situation and how to handle it. A crowd full of boos came into CFE Arena when the referee said that WR Greg Carr is ejected. However, the fans seemed to quickly calm down when the announcement came that Romain has been kicked out as well.
A good question was asked to Soul Insider on what will happen since Carr and Romain were disqualified from the game.

A good question was asked to Soul Insider on what will happen since Carr and Romain were disqualified from the game.
Soul Insider decided to reach out to a league source to determine the action that will be made by the league on the situation.
Source said that WR Greg Carr and CB James Romain will in fact be evaluated by the Football Operations as is every other penalty and ejections. If it is determined that it's a fine or a suspension, additional discipline will added on by the Office of the Commissioner (Jerry Kruz/AFL commissioner).
The decision is expected to come in the middle of next week and will be a big hit to the Soul if Romain is suspended. Romain played a key role in limiting the Predators' WR targets and broke up several passes that caused the Predators to deviate from throwing the deep ball a lot. Even though Jacksonville doesn't have a strong WR force, the Sharks still have a tendency to find their way into the end zone through the passing game.
