I like how in the same game he immediately got "repeat offender" status and the second in-game fine was significantly larger.

Reminds me of getting 2 tickets in the same day and having to go to court twice. Stood behind a guy in line with "repeat offender status" having 25 moving violations in 2 years. (No idea how he still had his license).

The judge said "wow, you have a lot of moving violations too" to me right after; I had 3 tickets in 2 years (including the 2 on one day). I didn't say anything, but 25 to 3...

If the NFL was serious about CTE and player safety, they would make any two personal fouls in the same game an automatic ejection.  If they find on review an uncalled personal foul that is deemed fine worthy, they should start the following game with one strike against them.
