Jaguars LB will be on a payment plan for his $20,000 fine
**** Gooddell. This guy makes ~$97,000 BEFORE taxes IF he stays on the practice squad for 16 weeks. And the league takes $20,000 MORE off the top of that?

What if he's cut after a couple weeks and no one picks him up? He's a freaking undrafted free agent. What a load of shit.

Making the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad could end up costing Mike Lockley $20,000.

During the preseason, the linebacker was assessed a $20,000 fine for an illegal hit on a New England Patriots receiver. That debt was wiped away when he was cut from the team's roster at the end of the preseason. If he had remained out of football, Lockley wouldn't have had to pay. Not an NFL player? No NFL fine.

When he was re-signed to the practice squad this week, the fine was reinstated. That would be a hefty amount of money no matter a player's salary. But as a member of the practice squad, Lockley will make $5,700 per week, far less than the amount he owes the NFL.

According to league spokesman Greg Aiello, players like Lockley are put on a payment plan to satisfy their debts. In Lockley's case, once he gets his first paycheck, he'd pay $2,500 per week for eight weeks to make good with the NFL.

Because the amount of the fine is more than 25 percent of his weekly check, Lockley can lodge an appeal. If I were him, I wouldn't hold my breath on getting that fine changed. The NFL doesn't exactly champion the cause of the little guy.

Seems like an inequity there.

Because the fines for these are made as a disincentive for multi-million dollar contracts as they are the ones usually paying. Courts actually have the ability to raise fines to the maximum if it is not considered enough of a deterrant. Taking 20% of a persons' pay for the year is overkill.

To me, the fine is too great, not because of the inequity between player salaries, but because none of these guys earn paychecks during the preseason.

Doesn't matter if you're Troy Polamaulu, James Harrison, or this guy.

No one gets paid anything more than per diem until the real games start.

Remember when Herm Edwards fined Tyron Brackenridge something like $14,000 for dancing in the locker room as a rookie? Herm seemed to think it was a big joke, and I was thinking, "This is an undrafted rookie free agent who may or may not make the team. Your moronic sense of humor could cost him everything he earns if he doesn't make it." Out of all the clueless things that Herm did, that may have been the most clueless.

I totally forgot about that. What a d*ck. I guess Herm felt as our leader, he had to take the time to address rookies trying to bond with their possible teammates. he wasn't thinking about winning, that's for sure.

I disagree. That hit was fundamentally wrong. Kids are taught not to hit like that starting at about five years old. Nip that shit in the bud right now. He's still making over $2500 after the fine.

I support safe football, and I support reasonable practices to keep these guys safe. That type of hit is also incredibly dangerous for the guy doing the hitting. Way too hard on the neck.

so what?

if a gas station attendant in lots of states sells to minors, the cops come in and fine the attendant...not the store. most states, the fine is about 250.

If you sell alcohol to a minor in SD (and a couple other states) the cops come into the store and arrest the attendant...the manager has to come down or the store is locked when the arrest happens.

90%+ of the time, when you hit dirty, you made a conscience choice to do so.

I wonder if the NFL would sue the kid if he has an outstanding debt by not playing enough to cover the payments.
