Steelers LB James Harrison Fined $75,000 For Two Hits

The NFL fined Steelers linebacker James Harrison $75,000 on Tuesday for his two helmet-to-helmet hits in Sunday’s win over the Browns.

Harrison’s violent hits knocked WR’s Josh Cribbs and Mohamed Massaquoi out of the game. He was unapologetic about his play on Monday, saying he is out to hurt any opposing player who comes in his vicinity.

NFL executive VP of football operations Ray Anderson said in letters to each of the three players fined on Tuesday, “Future offenses will result in an escalation of fines up to and including suspension.”

Harrison is a repeat offender, having been fined $5,000 for unnecessary roughness in Week Two for slamming Titans quarterback Vince Young to the ground.
