We told you to expect plenty of Pittsburgh Steelers’ players to have lighter wallets following the end-game fight that occurred last Thursday. In total, nearly half the roster, 20 players, have been fined from everything that happened in the final seconds of the game.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter provided the complete list, totaling 33 players in all. Most of them were fined for illegally entering the field during the fight. Meaning players who came from the sidelines and onto the field.
Here is the list of Steelers’ players fined:
QB Mason Rudolph
RB Tony Brooks-James
RB Trey Edmunds
RB Jaylen Samuels
WR James Washington
WR Johnny Holton
WR Tevin Jones
OG Ramon Foster
OT Matt Feiler
DE Tyson Alualu
ILB Mark Barron
ILB Robert Spillane
ILB Vince Williams
OLB Bud Dupree
OLB TJ Watt
CB Mike Hilton
CB Cam Sutton
S Terrell Edmunds
S Minkah Fitzpatrick
S Kameron Kelly
19 of those, everyone but Rudolph, were fined $3,507 were entering the fighting area. Rudolph was fined $50,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct. Maurkice Pouncey, in addition to being suspended two games, he was fined an additional $35,096. That fine was upheld during his appeal and can’t be reduced.
NFL fine money goes to charity. And there is a lot of it heading that way after this week. Currently, if you include the fines assessed to both organizations, the final number comes to $732,422.
