New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has been fined $12,154 for his abusive and profane comments directed at an official during last Sunday's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Tom Pelissero of USA Today Sports.

Beckham said after the game that an official told him to get out of his face when he was asking about a ruling. He also blasted the entire officiating crew, saying it was the same group that called his combative contest against the Carolina Panthers last season.

Pelissero reports the fine is only for Beckham's actions on the field.
