Anthony Richardson fined by the NFL for a play from the Colts Week 12 loss to the Lions
The NFL announced that it has fined Richardson $22,511.00 for using his helmet on a run to run over Lions defensive back Brian Branch, which the league deemed "unnecessary roughness." I've watched the play over and over before writing this article, and I still can't stop laughing at the hypocrisy on display by the NFL.
The NFL literally has a show that gives out an award weekly for a ball carrier who displays the angriest run of the week. That award is the Angry Run Sceptor from Kyle Brandt of NFL Network's "Good Morning Football" show. And now Richardson is being fined the price of a new car for some people due to lowering his head to brace for impact while he runs a player over. A play that is praised on the field is now costing players a significant amount of money.
Richardson's fine is tied for the largest of 16 fines handed out by the NFL this week and the seventh most expensive fine given out by the league all season long. The player Richardson ran over knows all too well about the league's ridiculousness on fines this season, with him racking up roughly $50,000.00 so far. The NFL stands for the "National Football League," but nowadays, it seems like it could easily stand for "No Fun League."
