"As it turns out, NFL fined Bengals LB Vontaze Burfict today for hit on Ben Roethlisberger, per agent Audie Attar. Burfict appealing fine."
So after stating he wouldn't be fined, they changed their mind. I am sure there was absolutely no lobbying influencing this change...
Unbelievable double standards at play here, considering the eye gouging from DeCastro and a slew of dangerous hits and fighting from Steeler players.
I believe his agent said he would not be fined, not the NFL.
Burfict is a dirty player, plain and simple. He deserves to be fined, and could have easily been suspended. The Steelers got their fair share of fines too.
