Broncos And Coach Josh McDaniels Fined $50,000 Each For Taping 49ers Walk Thru

The Denver Broncos and coach Josh McDaniels have been fined a combined $100,000 for the impermissible videotaping of a San Francisco 49ers practice from before their London game of Week 8.

The team’s video operations director, Steve Scarnecchia, has been fired for cause as a result of his taping the 49ers’ walk-through practice at Wembley Stadium the day before the Broncos’ 24-16 loss, the team announced in a release Saturday.

Scarnecchia filmed the drills of his own accord, later offering to show the video to McDaniels. But the coach declined, the Broncos said.

The NFL found that McDaniels, who was separately fined $50,000, had failed to report the incident as required by league policy.

McDaniels apologized Saturday in a statement. He was to speak to the media in a news conference set for 2:45 p.m. ET.
