Rolle Fined $7500 For Hit On Raven WR
From Jamison Hensley of the Baltimore Sun…..
Antrel Rolle’s crushing hit on Ravens wide receiver Mark Clayton last week delivered a blow to the New York Giants safety’s paycheck.
The NFL fined Rolle $7,500 on Friday.
Rolle’s hit to Clayton’s head came in Saturday’s preseason game at M&T Bank Stadium and gave Clayton a concussion. Rolle was penalized for hitting a defenseless receiver, since the ball had already sailed past Clayton. That was a point of emphasis in the offseason.
A few days later, Clayton said Rolle shouldn’t be fined. “It’s football, stuff like that happens,” Clayton said earlier in the week.
