Total BS. It was not intentional.
wow, what a joke. He led with his shoulder, next year he should take Gronks knees out just because thats what the NFL wants him to do
My honest reaction to this news is not suitable to post
But this, after the play Gronk drops a shoulder to the head of White and didnt get fined.

How much was gronk fined for his takedown earlier this year?
The league has went to [BLEEP]
Ridiculous.

He missed a game check and that's $281k.

I don't like it. I don't like it at all, but it is what it is. That's the NFL for ya'.
When I saw the hit, I told my wife he would be fined for it
In this thread: people who clearly have no idea how the helmet to helmet rules work.
How much did the refs get fined for their collective hits to the head before the game?
All that needs to be said is that Cyprien didn't get fined for lowering his head and launching at Kelce.

Not surprised that the league continues to treat the Jaguars like the redheaded step child, though.

But did he get fined?
Gronk wasn't fined which is bull.
I agree with the call on the field, but a fine???
Hit him harder next time to make it worth it.
Here's the rule for that flag screenshot directly from nfl's own site, you be the judge (sarcasm detected) :

Maybe I'm missing something here but I still don't see how that's a flag. Maybe the nfl has to cover thier own fix now and feels fining Church covers thier tracks lol?
