Chicago Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris will not be suspended for the sucker-punch that got him kicked out of the Bears' loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

ESPN Chicago reports that Harris may get fined by the NFL, but is expected to play in today's game against the 49ers in San Francisco. Harris called the mid-week matchup a "must-win" for the reeling Bears.

Harris was booted early in Sunday's game after he was caught punching Cardinals guard Deuce Lutui in the head after a scuffle. Harris has since apologized for the cheap shot.
