The NFL has taken quite a sum from players and coaches involved in the raucous conclusion to a Week 14 game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Seattle Seahawks.
Three coaches and four players were fined a total of $84,693 for myriad infractions, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
The fines are as follows:
- Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll was charged $10,000 for improperly entering the playing field during the game.
- Jaguars offensive line coach Pat Flaherty and wide receiver coach Keenan McCardell were fined the same amount for the same violation.
- Seahawks defenders Sheldon Richardson and Quinton Jefferson were each fined $9,115 for unnecessary roughness. Both were penalized and ejected from the game for their hits in the fourth quarter. Jefferson was seen trying to enter the stands to get at fans on his way to the locker room. His penalty for that is yet to be announced.
- Seahawks offensive lineman Germain Ifedi was fined the most: $24,309 for verbal abuse of a referee.
- Jaguars rookie running back Leonard Fournette was fined $12,154 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
- Seahawks defensive lineman Michael Bennett, who took a personal foul penalty for taking a shot at the knee of Jaguars center Brandon Linder, was not disciplined by the league.
