NFL fines Marsh for taunting Steelers

The NFL has fined Bears linebacker Cassius Marsh nearly $6,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct in the Steelers' 29-27 victory over Chicago Monday night.

Marsh drew a penalty in the game for taunting after sacking Ben Roethlisberger. Marsh, released by the Steelers at the end of training camp, did a karate kick, then took several steps toward the Pittsburgh sideline, stopping to pose as he stared down the sideline.

The fourth quarter play resulted in an automatic first down for the Steelers, who would go on to kick a field goal on the drive.

Taunting has been a point of emphasis by the NFL this season.
