Allen Fined 25G for Hit on Packers QB Rodgers

Vikings defensive end Jared Allen has been fined 25-thousand-dollars by the NFL for a hit on Green Bay Packers' quarterback Aaron Rodgers earlier this month. Allen was called for roughing the passer after a helmet-to-helmet hit on November 9th. He was earlier hit for a 50-thousand-dollar fine for two late hits on Houston quarterback Matt Schaub on November 2nd. Allen was acquired by the Vikings in an offseason trade with Kansas City. He has racked up eight sacks and two safeties in 10 games.
