The NFL fined the Baltimore Ravens defensive end Dwan Edwards $5,000 Friday for hitting the Cleveland Browns wide receiver Joshua Cribbs during Monday’s game. But the player does not want to accept it and plans to appeal.
During the Monday’s 16-0 win, Edwards struck Cribbs with a forearm to the facemask on the final play. But the reason for the fine is that he hit Cribbs at a time when Cribbs “supposedly shouldn’t have reasonably expected it.” And he has already talked with Cribbs and the latter was convinced that Edwards was not trying to injure him and defended the DE on Friday when saying that he may be able to play Sunday’s game against the Lions.
Other fined players include Browns quarterback Brady Quinn, who had to play $10,000 for blocking alinebacker in Ravens jersey duruing Monday's game, Steelers defensive Reggie Nelson, Titans cornerback Cortland Finnegan and linebacker Keith Bulluck.
