There was a national reaction last week after Baltimore Ravens fullback Patrick Ricard was fined $21,694 for unnecessary roughness against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. Film of the play was posted by The Baltimore Banner’s Jonas Shaffer, and both pundits and players were pissed.
I will say it again… This is STEALING money from guys.
These absurd fines for routine football plays have got to stop.
Fines for intentfully malicious plays?
Absolutely.
Taking $21,694 from a guy for this?!
What are we doing.
