Also fined Friday were Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins, Packers nose tackle B.J. Raji, and Cardinals placekicker Jay Feely, all docked $7,875 for unnecessary roughness.

Jenkins grabbed Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers' facemask and also poked Rodgers in the right eye. Raji struck Saints long snapper Justin Drescher with his knee. Feely struck an Arizona player late during a kickoff return.
