Quote:But I believe money earned while working for a US corporation, no matter location, is subject to tax. At least that has been my experience.

 

The fine would be dollars, as he's paid in dollars - and all fines go back into the NFL's pocket, which is used for charity.

 

Here's a bit on UK taxes, which come into play because you are taxed where your income is earned:

<p style="margin-left:40px;">"This year, two NFL games were played in London, where the top tax rate is 45 percent. Players will receive a foreign tax credit against the amount paid in the United Kingdom, but only up to the top tax rate in the United States, which is 39.6 percent."

 

So, players' checks are getting walloped up front for games over there, only to be credited back a good portion of it on their US taxes.

 

 

EDIT: Ha... you guys beat me to it.
