Packers linebacker Datone Jones has been fined $36,464 for a roughing the passer penalty last week on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan, per multiple reports.
The high fine represents the amount the league docks repeat offenders. Jones was fined more than $17,000 for a roughing the passer penalty in the playoffs last season against Washington quarterback Kirk Cousins.
This roughing the passer penalty occurred late in the first half last Sunday and moved the Falcons into Green Bay territory. The Falcons finished a seven-play, 75-yard drive with a touchdown to cut their halftime deficit to 21-19. The Falcons went on to win, 33-32.
