A former Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman has been fined nearly $15,000 by the NFL for making a violent gesture during Week 8 action, according to a report from Chiefs Wire.
The league office issued the penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct stemming from the incident, which occurred during the weekend of November 7, 2026. The fine amount approaches the maximum for a first-time offense of this nature under the current collective bargaining agreement.
Neither the player's name nor the specific opponent involved were disclosed in the initial report. The Chiefs organization has not publicly commented on the disciplinary action against their former player.
