Overview
- The NFL listed an $11,593 unnecessary-roughness fine for Watt from the Week 14 win over the Ravens on its Gameday Accountability page.
- The cited basis was Rule 12, Section 2, which bars landing on a player who is already on the ground, despite no flag being thrown at the time.
- Video shows Watt jumping onto the pile after a two-yard Derrick Henry run late in the first half, and Henry was not injured on the play.
- It is Watt’s first fine of the season and the only fine from that matchup, and he has the option to appeal.
- Separately, Watt underwent surgery for a partially collapsed lung sustained during a dry-needling session, was released from the hospital, and will miss Monday’s game against the Dolphins.
