Bryce Heem has received a two-week ban for his challenge in the air on Willie le Roux on Sunday.
The wing took out the full-back early in the second half and was sent off for his troubles by referee Luke Pearce.
He pleaded guilty to the offence at a hearing in yesterday and was given the two-week suspension.
He is free to play again on Tuesday 18 April.
The Disciplinary panel said: “The panel deemed that the actions of Heem were reckless and in part affected by the running line of Wasps number 13 (Alapeti Leiua).
“Notwithstanding this, the player accepted his actions merited the award of a red card and the panel, having heard direct evidence from Wasps’ Willie Le Roux, found this was a low end entry point.”
