Saints safety fined $21,000 for hit that knocked out Harvin
 

Even if it’s less costly than what the Seahawks have to endure, last week’s hit on wide receiver Percy Harvin will still cost the guy who hit him.

The league office tells PFT that Saints safety Rafael Bush was fined $21,000 for his shot to a defenseless Harvin.

The hit, which led to Harvin leaving the field the first time, was also flagged during the game.

But that’s little consolation to the Seahawks, who now have to play for the NFC title without their biggest offseason acquisition, who was ruled out because of his concussion.

It was good old fashioned football. Too bad you cant play it anymore.

Wearing a #25 Bush jersey is now better than ever.

The Seahawks obviously violated concussion protocol imho. It was clear Harvin should never have re-entered the game after that hit.

Well over the top.
They have reacted and the fine is do big due to Harvin being out.The man has a history of breaking.The hit was a split second late, and the sort you see the 49ers, Seahawks and old Ravens team lay on every game.It sets a tone.

Whatever. Seahawks hit like that all the time. At least our DB's wait until they have the ball/are about to get the ball before mauling them.
