Los Angeles Rams cornerback Trumaine Johnson thought he got away with one Sunday, but his obvious facemask on LeGarrette Blount will cost him.

Despite not receiving a flag on the play, Johnson was fined $18,231 for his foul against the bruising New England Patriots running back, according to ProFootballTalk's Josh Alper.

Blount didn't seem bothered by the play, finishing the game with 88 yards and a touchdown en route to his team's 10th win of the season.

Rams running back Todd Gurley was also given a $9,115 fine for a chop block on Patriots linebacker Dont'a Hightower. Gurley's foul did garner a flag, though.
