And you know these guys were warned.

Dennis Allen & co can’t seem to do much right in 2022.

Just another reason I'm glad I don't really watch the games anymore.

The league and the refs are unaccountable for their screwups, which basically decide the outcome of games.

I’m curious if other teams have been fined for this before. Can someone tell
me? Sorry if I missed it i’m the article.

Yep.

The only other team that I've seen mentioned on the NFL network has been Jessie Bates of the Bengals from last week's game vs the Chiefs.

The OTHER 3 ... not much info.

I wonder if Jordan could appeal this with some federal labor type authorities. I can’t imagine fining a worker for seeking treatment for an injury is legal. OSHA could sanction Goodell and fine him, so not just appeal this fine, fine him!

The NFL thinks they have proof because supposedly Jordan gets up and takes a signal from the sideline before down, but its not nearly that simple if you think about it. Most foot injuries only become fully apparent after getting up and taking a few steps. Maybe step one is ouch, step two is darn i felt that again let me pay more attention, and step three is oh thats not good. Meanwhile what doesna defensive captain do probably every play? Look to the sideline for a signal. So logically the normal experience of a foot injury would usually be to get up and notice the injury while looking to the sideline for a signal on the next play.

The NFL is a dangerous sport and players accept that but the right to seek treatment when injured at work is a very basic right that I dont think players can or should waive. I think Goodell is probably violating some sort of labor law.

I think our best shot is having the NFLPA assert itself and stand up for Jordan and other players who may have legitimate injuries and are in this position to be wrongly accused. NFLPA needs to let the NFL they can't have it both ways with player safety.

Having just watched a few World Cup games, the refereeing seems a lot more fair and normal there . And players fake injuries a lot in soccer.

You are finally realizing that is a fact. The popularity of the game continues to skyrocket. For every person that claims to have stopped watching two people must be taking their place.

That may be the perception for some... maybe even a small morsel of truth in light and in spite of the population increases worldwide, despite the elite's masterplan to reduce our numbers via multiple devious means.

There's too much FB on TeeBee right now. It's all watered down, notwithstanding the pesky little game integrity issues continuing to increase in frequency.
