The head of security for the Philadelphia Eagles is banned from being on the sidelines for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Dom DiSandro will perform his regular duties and will be in Dallas, but will not appear on the sidelines.

DiSandro was ejected from last Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers after a scuffle with linebacker Dre Greenlaw. Both DiSandro and Greenlaw were ejected from the game.

Greenlaw picked up Eagles receiver DeVonta Smith and slammed him to the turf leading to the altercation. The NFL fined Greenlaw $10,927 for unnecessary roughness.

According to ESPN.com, DiSandro and other Eagles officials were in New York on Friday to meet with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, but the league has not decided if anyone will be further punished.

“This is an ongoing conversation with the NFL, and we are going to respect the restriction that is currently in place. Although Dom will not be on the sideline this Sunday, he will continue to fulfill his role with the team in all other capacities," the Eagles said in a statement.

The NFL also sent a memo to all 32 teams reminding them that all game-day staff are not to be involved with on-the-field interactions.

Greenlaw said earlier this week that he and DiSandro had exchanged apologies.
