Adebo was fined $7,644 for an unnecessary roughness infraction with 1:01 remaining in the second quarter, on a play where he tackled Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson; oddly, he was not fouled on the play during the game, but he received a financial penalty from the NFL all the same.
Carl Granderson

Granderson was fined $16,391 for what the NFL called “a hit on a quarterback” with 11:46 remaining in the third quarter. Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs threw an incomplete pass on the play but Granderson was fined for roughing the passer, awarding Minnesota a 15-yard gain.
Tyrann Mathieu
