Source: 2 Titans players fined for penalties against Bears in Week 9

Two Titans players were fined for egregious penalties against the Bears in their Week 9 game, a source said.

Titans safety Kevin Byard was flagged for a facemask penalty against Bears wide receiver Anthony Miller with five minutes remaining and was fined $10,000 for it. His teammate, safety Amani Hooker, committed an unnecessary-roughness penalty on Miller as well, but he was not fined.

Titans defensive end Jack Crawford was fined, however, for his roughing-the-passer penalty against Bears quarterback Nick Foles. That hit cost him $6,985.

While Byard and Crawford’s penalties were expensive, the Bears’ penalties were more costly on the field in a game they lost 24-17.
