San Francisco 49ers outside linebacker told the media this week that he was fined $18,231 for a horse collar tackle against Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Harold chased down Wilson and tackled him for what would have been his first career sack. The refs threw a flag and the 3rd and 21 became a Seahawks 1st and 10. Wilson injured his knee on the play, and was replaced by Trevone Boykin. An MRI revealed an MCL sprain, but it apparently is not a particularly big one, and Wilson is available for Sunday’s game against the New York Jets.
