Mike Tomlin Fined $100,000 for Interfering with Jacoby Jones
By Jason Lisk
Mike Tomlin has been fined $100,000 for this incident from last Thursday’s game where he was standing on the edge of the field and stepped out of Jacoby Jones’ way just as he was returning a kick down the sideline, the league has announced. “A modification or forfeiture of draft choices will be considered” as well once the final draft order is set. What does this mean? If Pittsburgh has too good of a pick, they will reduce it? Could they move Pittsburgh to the end of round one, but not lose the pick entirely? We will find out, but for now, Tomlin is paying a steep price for, according to him, losing track of where he was while watching the video board.
