The Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker was hit with two hefty fines.
PITTSBURGH -- The NFL hit Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt with two fines for his actions in the team's Week 5 win over the Baltimore Ravens.
The league announced Watt was fined $13,659 for taking his helmet off following a game-winning sack against Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. He was also fined $11,473 for a play against wide receiver Zay Flowers, where Watt's first made contact with Flower's helmet. Watt was not flagged for either penalty during the game, but the NFL administered the fines afterward. In the play where he removed his helmet, the action happened after the play, so it would not have caused a change in the outcome from the sack.of Watt punching at Flowers as he's attempting to make a catch. The purpose of Watt's actions was to hit the ball out of the receiver's hands, but it hit the helmet instead.
