Dean was removed in the third quarter after a late, body-launching tackle on Badger, who was out of bounds during the St. Louis Battlehawks' 25-0 lead over the Orlando Storm at Inter&Co Stadium in Orlando.
Despite the hit, Badger stayed in the game, catching four passes and a touchdown as Orlando rallied with 17 unanswered points, making the match competitive.
Both players previously played for the Florida Gators but were undrafted by the NFL; the UFL has not yet announced further discipline for Dean ahead of St. Louis' next game on April 30.
