NFL Fine/Suspension Blotter Week 11 2019 (Part Six): The Normal Programming

  • Los Angeles Chargers:  Michael Davis, two game suspension for substances of abuse.
First suspension for the Chargers this year.

And here we go with the announcements from the Browns-Steelers fiasco.
  • Pittsburgh Steelers:  Mason Rudolph played for free last week.  Fined $50,000 for his role in the incident, an aggravated fine.
  • Pittsburgh Steelers:  Which triggers a $50,000 team fine under the fine portion of the Club Remittance Policy
  • A number of other players have also been fined due to the incident, and will be listed once announced.
  • Wait, did I say "a number"?  TRY THIRTY-THREE!!!!
Let's start with the $3,507 fines.  These are all for entering a fracas, non-involvement version:
  • Pittsburgh first:  Tyson Alallu
  • Mark Barron
  • Tony Brooks-James
  • Bud Dupree (TWO TIME LOSER)
  • Terrell Edmunds
  • Trey Edmunds
  • Matt Feiler
  • Minkah Fitzpatrick (TWO-TIME LOSER)
  • Mike Hilton
  • Johnny Holton
  • Tevin Jones
  • Kameron Kelly
  • Ramon Foster
  • Jaylen Samuels
  • Robert Spillane
  • Cameron Sutton
  • James Washington
  • TJ Watt
  • Vince Williams
That's another $63,126 against the Steelers number.

Now Cleveland, with the reminder EVERY ONE OF THESE $3,507 fines has to be matched by the team.
  • Justin Burris
  • TJ Carrie
  • Jarvis Landry (TWO-TIME LOSER)
  • Devaroe Lawrence (THREE-TIME LOSER)
  • Sheldrick Redwine
  • Chris Smith
  • Chad Thomas
  • Denzel Ward
  • Greedy Williams
  • Mack Wilson (TWO-TIME LOSER)
So that's another additional (and, again, just all for the fight -- basically anyone, especially those who left the bench, who even got near the fight got the fine) $35,070 for that, and ANOTHER $35,070 the Browns must match!

And there was still more from that game!
  • Pittsburgh Steelers:  Olasunkanmi Adeniyi:  $28,075 for the helmet rule. 
  • And that fine WILL put them over the top.  Another $25,000, plus another $27,754 dollar-for-dollar.
  • Cleveland Browns (and team):  Greedy Williams $28,075 for helmet to helmet
  • Cleveland Browns (and team):  Damarius Randall:  $28,075 for helmet to helmet
  • Cleveland Browns (and team):  Chad Thomas:  $21,056 for roughing the passer
  • Thomas and Williams are both TWO TIME-LOSERS IN THE SAME WEEK
I think that's finally all of it.

So let's add it all up.

Let's start with Pittsburgh:
  • $250,000 Commissioner imposed
  • Rudolph fined $50,000
  • Pouncey fined $35,096
  • Adeniyi fined $28,075
  • NINETEEN $3,507 fines for $66,633
  • With all that, the Steelers number took on $194,708 JUST THIS WEEK.  As a result, their fine number for the season shoots to $252,347
  • So, under the accumulated fines:  $50,000 for Level 1
  • $25,000 for Level 2
  • And matching fines of $30,231
The Steelers team was fined $355,231

The players were fined $179,804.

Grand total for Pittsburgh:  $535,035

Cleveland:
  • $250,000 Commissioner imposed
  • Garrett fined $45,623
  • Randall fined $28,075
  • Williams fined $28.075 for the helmet hit
  • Thomas fined $21,056 for roughing the passer
  • TEN $3,507 fines for $35,070
  • So, with Garrett augmented to $50,000 with his suspension, the team had to match ALL FINES, plus that $50,000.  
  • And $48,247 for Ogunjobi.  That's $245,993 in fines off the fine policy alone.
  • PLUS, with Ogunjubo's suspension upheld, $398,019 for the suspension clause of the situation.
Get ready for this whopper:  For incidents in this game:  The Cleveland Browns team was fined, from various parts of the Club Remittance Policy, $893,612.

Players fines:  $157,899

That's a million bucks, guys.  $1,051,511 for just the Browns.

And a total fine for the incidents of ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED EIGHTY SIX THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED FORTY SIX DOLLARS.

$1,586,546

I want Goodell to see that number and see it well.  YOUR POLICY DOESN'T FUCKING WORK!

The Browns' fine number JUST THIS WEEK was almost sufficient for dollar-for-dollar if it were an entire season!  $210,523.  The final threshold if $221,116.

The Browns now have been fined $1,563,051 (counting the $500K for the suspensions and the $250K team fine).

And then other games' fines as well, as they come in.

  • Detroit Lions:  Will Harris:  $28,075 for defenseless player
  • More to come probably...
