NFL office fines Baltimore Ravens Joe Flacco amongst other players – NFL News
The National Football League (NFL) office has imposed penalty on the Baltimore Ravens' Joe Flacco for a foul in a horse-collar tackle in the game against Seattle Seahawks.
The player has been asked to pay $7,500 in fine as penalty over the foul. The foul was reported when Flacco prevented David Hawthorne from scoring. He stopped him on the eight yards from line. The tackle was declared illegal and the player fined.
Meanwhile Arthur Jones, Ravens defensive tackle, has been penalised for his unnecessary roughness in the Seattle's game. He attempted to block the Seahawks player too low. He was asked to deposit $7,500 as fine money to the NFL office.
The Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor has also been fined for his contact with the Ravens Anquan Boldin. The Chancellor had come into helmet to helmet contact with Ravens receiver Anquan Boldin. He has been asked to pay $20,000 in fine.
As result of the hit the Seahawks Chancellor has suffered concussion, while no injury had been reported to Boldin.
Despite the injury the Seahawks Chancellor has taken part in the practice sessions and is expected to play next game.
Other fines which have reportedly been imposed on players from other teams included New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. He was fined because of his post-touchdown spike of the football in their match against the New York Jets. He has been ordered to pay $7,500.
He had drawn an unsportsmanlike 15 yards penalty in order to spike the ball near a Jets defender. The foul came after Rob Gronkowski had scored a five yards touchdown in the third quarter of the game, which Patriots won 37-16.
Carolina Panthers’ three players have been penalized for fouls in their game against Tennessee Titans. The players penalised are their offensive tackles Jordan Gross and Byron Bell, and defensive end Charles Jonson. Each player has been asked to pay the fine of $7,500, respectively.
Another player who has been fined is the Cleveland Browns' guard Shawn Lauvao, penalised for head-butting Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing. He has been ordered to pay the penalty of $7,500.
