NFL fines Mason Rudolph $50,000
Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph did not get off easy in the altercation that saw him hit over the head with his own helmet by Browns defensive end Myles Garrett.

Seems about right, $50k for a guy who makes $38k per game is pretty stiff but fair in my mind.

Sure maybe they should have made it exactly a game check or whatever, but him getting a fine is totally reasonable.

does he have to pay taxes and his agent(s) and whatnot from that 38k or is that what he gets after taxes? If 38k is pre tax when he'd be lucky to clear some 25k

Eh, i'd argue that instead of his fine being lowered, the people who make tons of money should be fined a lot more than they are when they go full retard. Why do you think some of the douches in the NFL get fined for the same stupid shit 75 times? Because they get fined so little that it really doesn't matter.

Maximum fines and shit are all baked into the CBA. Obviously 50k for someone making league minimum or thereabouts compared to someone making 8 figures is very different. Maybe his appeal gets it lowered, but lets not make it out like he was totally innocent.

I mean, if Garrett doesn't lose his shit and try and murder him then there wouldn't have even been a flag, much less a fine. Garrett hit him late and he reacted, happens every game.
A fine in the 5k-10k range would be a lot more appropriate

It's pretty hard to show damages for someone calling you gay in 2nd grade. This on the other hand, you could make a case that if he gets that reputation it could cost him millions. I don't think anyone believes Garrett though so it's probably not going to cost him much.

Report: If fired, Jason Garrett's preferred destination is the Giants
As Cowboys coach Jason Garrett embarks on what could be the final six games of his tenure in Texas, someone connected to Garrett is offering a not-so-subtle warning to Jones & Son, LLC: If you don't keep Garrett, he may end up coaching one of your biggest rivals.

Sources: Kittle played with broken bone in ankle
George Kittle played part of the 49ers' game Oct. 31 against Arizona with a broken bone in his ankle, but he feels good enough to return Sunday night against Green Bay, according to sources.

On one hand it is awesome to have a guy that tough. On the other, it worries me that he will make the injury worse, and wouldn't be at full health for a playoff run.
