Eagles safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson wasn’t flagged when he delivered a hard hit on Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LVII, but he was fined.
Gardner-Johnson got a $14,111 fine for lowering his head to initiate contact. Gardner-Johnson made clear that he didn’t agree with it.
“Tell me why I got fined from the hit in Super Bowl,” Gardner-Johnson wrote on Twitter.
Gardner-Johnson’s agent confirmed to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network that he will appeal.
