Bengals LB Vontaze Burfict reportedly fined $112K for multiple infractions vs. Steelers image

Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict will not be suspended for his actions in a game against the Steelers on Sunday, but his pocketbook did just get considerably lighter.

According to ESPN, Burfict was fined $112,000 for multiple infractions including unnecessary roughness against wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back James Conner.

The NFL did not distinguish how much he was fined for each hit.

According to the report, Burfict has been fined $416,000 in his career, though some of that may have come down with appeals.

Burfict missed the first four games of the season due to a PED suspension. Since returning to the field, he has 15 tackles and two passes defensed in two games.
