Washington Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle was fined a total of $84,231 for two separate incidents during last week’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.
The fine is worth more than two game checks for Sprinkle, who is making $645,000 this season.
Sprinkle was fined $56,156 for the first incident and $28,075 for the second. One was for lowering his helmet on a hit delivered to Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes on the second play of the third quarter.
Rhodes was taken to the medical tent on the sidelines and evaluated for a concussion after the play.
