Seahawks WR Ricardo Lockette kicked out for throwing punch

They always say it's not the first cheap shot, but the second one that NFL referees will throw the flag for.

Seattle Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette was involved on the punt return by the Kansas City Chiefs' DeAnthony Thomas, and Lockette was assessed a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty and tossed from the game after it appeared he threw a punch.

Replays shows that Lockette was pushed by a Chiefs player, but it's no matter. The refs saw the second act, and he was booted from the game. Lockette also was forced to receive an earful from the Arrowhead Stadium crowd.

So humiliating, making Ricardo Lockette run the perimeter of the stadium to leave the field. Getting heckled by #chiefs fans. Deserves it
