Steelers Linebacker Hit With Fine for Hit in Colts Game

Colts cornerback JuJu Brents was fined $8,250 for a hit on Najee Harris that was deemed unnecessary roughness. If you watch the play, it’s just a solid, hard tackle. The fine makes little sense.

Fine amounts are set by the NFL CBA. Fines go to the Professional Athletes Foundation, which gives money to NFL legends in need and provides funds to support the health and safety of football players at all levels.
