During what has become the customary Saturday reporting of fines handed down by the NFL from the previous week of action, James Cook, Bradley Chubb and C.J. Gardner-Johnson were hit for on-field actions during Buffalo’s win in Los Angeles in Week 5.
Chubb was apparently fined for
his taunting of Alaric Jackson — who hit Chubb postgame and will serve a one-game suspension — on a false start penalty.
While Cook was not penalized for a helmet-to-helmet hit on safety Kamren Kinchens, he was fined for it. And apparently the use-of-helmet flags were relatively common last week:
I’m not entirely sure what prompted Gardner-Johnson fine, although he did have a sizable hit on a tight end that was flagged against the Rams.
Crazy that facemask calls can draw a fine from the league too, like the one Braden Fiske received on his facemask of Cook.
