NFL Makes Final Decision on Dallas Cowboys Incident

Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Tyler Booker has been hit with an $11,941 fine for a late hit on Green Bay Packers safety Javon Bullard.

The NFL released its Week 6 accountability report on Saturday, and Booker was included on the list after an unnecessary roughness penalty during the Cowboys’ Week 6 game at Lambeau Field.

The play happened in the fourth quarter when Dallas converted a fourth-and-5 with a completion to Ryan Flournoy. After the whistle, Booker charged from behind and hit Bullard, knocking him to the ground.

The officials immediately flagged it for unnecessary roughness and assessed a 15-yard penalty.

Stated in Rule 12, Section 2, Article 8 of the 2026 NFL rulebook, unnecessary roughness covers “unnecessarily running into, diving into, or throwing the body against or on a player who (1) is out of the play or (2) should not have reasonably anticipated such contact by an opponent, before or after the ball is dead.”
