In yesterday’s Raiders / Steelers game 5 time Pro Bowl DT, Richard Seymour slapped Ben Roethlisberger and was ejected from the game. NFL sources announced today that Seymour will be getting fined $25,000 for the hit. After the game, Semour commented:
“I apologize to my teammates, I never want to do anything to hurt the team. You always want to protect yourself, but there’s no excuse.”
“I’m not sure why he [Roethlisberger] ran up on me. I just turned around and it was a natural reaction,”
