It had no malicious intent. If he did then the other hand wouldn't have came around to protect Brees some from being slammed to the ground. It was a move to tackle that was just a little high otherwise it would have been fair play.

Fines are getting ridiculous. Penalty was enough in this case.

how is it not malicious? He swung his arm at Brees' neck/head. A good football play would've been to lower the shoulder and drive it into the QB's back, but he chose to go high instead. And it cost him.
