A. Rolle Fined $12,500

The league fined Arizona Cardinals cornerback Antrel Rolle $12,500 for his facemask tackle of Kansas City Chiefs tailback Larry Johnson last weekend.

Rolle pulled down Johnson by his facemask at the end of a 78-yard catch and run and was assessed a personal foul.

Johnson hurt his neck on the play but the injury was deemed a minor strain and he's expected to play this weekend in Pittsburgh.

Good. He should have been fined, that play was extremely uncalled for. Roll was beat on the play don't injure a player for a 2-3 record I mean c'mon. I could see doing something like that if it was the superbowl. But week 5....
