WARNING!! Two Patriots players got hefty fines for unnecessary roughness plays

New England Patriots defensive lineman Deatrich Wise Jr. and running back Antonio Gibson were both fined for plays in the team’s Week 15 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Per NFL.com, Wise was fined $16,883 for an unnecessary roughness penalty stemming from a horse-collar tackle on Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray. Gibson was fined $14,805 for unnecessary roughness as well. The fine on the veteran running back was due to the use of his helmet on a block.

Wise has been a key part of the Patriots defense this season with 23 combined tackles and five sacks.

Gibson has provided complementary contributions to the running back room, recording 86 carries for 406 yards and a touchdown.

He has helped take some of the pressure off starting running back Rhamondre Stevenson.

Overall, Wise and Gibson have been positive producers for the team this season. They’ll be a bit lighter in the wallet after the recent fines, but they’ll quickly turn the page to Saturday’s home game against the Los Angeles Chargers.
