Josh is not used to tackling people, but I suspect that fine will help him sharpen his skills.

I think all fines still go to NFL charities, right?

Fine amounts are mandated by the CBA and have minimums. $20K+ is the agreed upon 'first offense' fine for unnecessary roughness. Clear cut, black and white.
