3 Seahawks fined for penalties against the Lions

The physical battle between the Detroit Lions and Seattle Seahawks in Week 2 produced some big hits. It also had some that were illegal and costly for Seahawks players.

Three Seahawks received fines from the NFL for their illegal activities in Ford Field. The league released the weekly fines on Saturday. Most notable was the late hit by EDGE Darrell Taylor on Lions QB Jared Goff. That egregiously late hit cost Taylor $11,957.

Wideout D.K. Metcalf is out $10,927 for his facemask penalty against Lions safety Kerby Joesph in the end zone. Joseph was flagged for pass interference on the play too, a direct result of Metcalf yanking his facemask to earn the fine. Defensive back Tre Brown was also fined for a facemask penalty in the game, costing him $6,112.

No Detroit players were fined from the game.
