NFL fines Saints' Kenny Vaccaro, Alex Anzalone $24,309 each for Week 1 penalties
 

Two New Orleans Saints defenders are lighter in the wallet Friday after hearing from the NFL.

The league fined safety Kenny Vaccaro and rookie linebacker Alex Anzalone $24,309 each for unnecessary roughness penalties in Week One's contest against the Minnesota Vikings, according to a league spokesman.

Vaccaro's penalty occurred at the :22 mark of the second quarter, where he appeared to lead with his helmet before leveling Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

Anzaolne drew his penalty at the 4:00 mark of the first quarter, when he appeared to hit Vikings running back Dalvin Cook in the head area on a bang-bang play during an incomplete pass.

The infraction arrived three plays after rookie safety Marcus Williams was flagged for a late hit out of bounds. Williams was not fined by the league.

Anzalone's and Vaccaro's infractions occurred during scoring drives by the Vikings.

As owner of the NFL... that is exactly how I pay him. Isn't that obvious?
