Philadelphia Eagles' longtime security chief Dom DiSandro (aka Big Dom) made the NFL's naughty list this Christmas.
Not only has the league banned Big Dom from the sidelines for the remainder of the season for his Week 13 incident with San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw, but they have denied his appeal of a $100,000 fine, per the Associated Press.
Rob Maaddi of the AP also reports that the Eagles picked up the tab for this fine, saving DiSandro some money after all.
As for Greenlaw, he has been fined $10,927 for an unnecessary roughness penalty on Eagles wideout DeVonta Smith.
While it was a costly sideline scuffle, there are no hard feelings between the two parties who have exchanged apologies.
"We just exchanged a formal apology just between me and (Niners general manager) John (Lynch) and some of the same people that we do know that in the building and stuff like that," Greenlaw told reporters earlier this month. "He seemed like a genuine guy. Seemed like a guy that everybody loved in the building. So, I hate that, honestly. I really hate that it even escalated and went to that."
Although DiSandro isn't on the sidelines, he's still traveling with the team and performing his regular off-field duties.
He's also become quite the celebrity.
