Robbie Anderson will no longer be playing football for the Carolina Panthers following his confrontations with coaches during Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

While Anderson was ejected from the sidelines by his own coach during the game, the organization decided to keep him off the team for good. Carolina traded Anderson to the Arizona Cardinals on Monday for undisclosed draft compensation.

Arizona was in need of some wide receiver help after Marquise Brown went down with an injury in the team’s 19-9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Anderson and the return of DeAndre Hopkins should get the offense back to where it needs to be.

The Score and NFL Network were the first to report the trade.

Anderson was seen getting into a few heated conversations with wide receivers coach Joe Dailey and interim head coach Steve Wilks as the team played the Rams. In the second half, Anderson was told to hit the showers, and he did not return. In the first half, he was spotted sitting away from his team.

He was not targeted in the game.

After the game, he told reporters he was not happy being taken out on third down.

"It's third down, it's a money down. I don’t think I should be OK with that (being taken out)," Anderson said. "So I made a comment on why I was taken out.
