BREAKING: League Office Reverses Massive Fine Handed to New York Jets Star Running Back Breece Hall 2023 24 Postseason

The NFL and Roger Goodell have made amends regarding a fine handed to New York Jets running back Breece Hall last month. Upon appeal, the league office rescinded Hall’s $43,709 fine received for lowering his helmet during a run against the Atlanta Falcons, per the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

Hall had received one of the most significant fines for a singular hit this season. Houston Texans linebacker Denzel Perryman obtained a $66,666 monetary penalty for impermissible helmet use earlier this season, eventually serving a suspension. Meanwhile, fullback Keith Smith owns the most substantial on-field fine of the season, getting hit for $87,418 for unsportsmanlike conduct in Week 3, per Spotrac.

The NFL continues to crack down on the “impermissible use of the helmet” in football games. The league and Roger Goodell smacked New York Jets running back Breece Hall with a massive fine for lowering his limit during a run against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13. Hall took a dump-off pass for a gain of about six yards before lowering his shoulder, and naturally, his helmet, on Falcons corner A.J. Terrell. The Atlanta star defender ended up in concussion protocol after failing to get up after the hit.
