2018 NFL Fine Blotter Week Nine

(And, technically, seven and eight as well...)

Week 7:

  • Carolina Panthers:  Eric Reid:  $10,026 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers:  Jordan Whitehead:  $26,739 helmet to helmet on a quarterback -- call was not flagged in the game.
  • Chicago Bears:  Eddie Jackson:  $10,026 for a face mask.
  • Cincinnati Bengals:  Shawn Williams:  $20,054 for helmet to helmet.  Making him a TWO-TIME LOSER, may have been a doubled fine.
Week 8:
  • New England Patriots:  Julian Edelman:  $26,739 helmet to helmet on a quarterback.
  • Minnesota Vikings:  Laquon Treadwell:  $13,369 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
That's why I didn't do any blotters the last two weeks -- and the penalty numbers from those two weeks back it up, surprisingly.

Week 9:
  • New Orleans Saints:  Michael Thomas:  $30,000 for being a TWO-TIME touchdown celebration LOSER.  Enhanced fine for using a cell-phone as a prop.
  • Tennessee Titans:  Kevin Byard:  $10,026 for excessive celebration.  He TO'd on The Star in Dallas.  He feels the fine is worth it and expected a mass brawl.
  • Stupid fucking way to lose your team's clean sheet, Kevin!!! 
  • Speaking of, down to two clean sheets:  Washington and Arizona.
  • Chicago Bears:  Aaron Lynch, also $10,026, also for an illegal celebration.
  • Kansas City Chiefs:  Aaron Hitchens:  $13,369 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
  • More possibly to come.
