Brady Quinn has been fined an undisclosed amount for taking out Terrell Suggs knee on Monday night, a move that has likely cost the Ravens’ linebacker a few weeks of playing time. Earlier this season, Brett Favre and Mark Sanchez were fined $10,000 and $5,000, respectively, for similar blocks. It’s safe to assume Quinn was fined more than that because of the injury it caused.
At Stupid Sports Blog, which despite its name is actually quite clever, they ponder if this whole incident is the NFL’s fault for not punishing these dangerous QB blocks more severely before someone got hurt.
UPDATE: Per Adam Schefter, Quinn's fine was $10,000.
