NFL Fines Saints’ Cam Jordan, Dennis Allen for Alleged Fake Injury, per Report

The NFL fined several members of the Saints for a player faking an injury during the game Monday Night vs. the Buccaneers, ProFootballTalk reports.

The league determined that defensive lineman Cameron Jordan’s injury in the middle of the fourth quarter, before a 4th-and-10 Tampa Bay play, was exaggerated and instructed by the New Orleans sidelines. Jordan went down with what appeared to be a knee injury when it seemed as if the Buccaneers were going to go for it on fourth down. Tampa Bay ended up punting on the next play.
