The Pittsburgh Steelers fined wideout Antonio Brown $10,000 for live streaming video from the team's locker room following their divisional-round win over the Kansas City Chiefs, FOX Sports' Jay Glazer reports.

Brown could also be fined by the NFL for violating the league's social media policy.

Head coach Mike Tomlin scolded Brown for what he described as "selfish" actions in sharing the team's private time with his Facebook followers.

During the stream, Tomlin could be heard calling the New England Patriots "assholes," which ignited a minor media storm. Tomlin subsequently apologized for his language.

Brown reportedly streamed the video because he has a lucrative deal with Facebook which encouraged him to do so.
