Colts linebacker E.J. Speed faced a hefty $22,511 fine for an illegal hit on Patriots' Hunter Henry, despite avoiding a penalty during the game.
The NFL deemed Speed's hit on Henry 'Unnecessary Roughness (use of the helmet),' resulting in the largest fine of the week, surpassing others by over $2,000.
Hunter Henry's absence due to Speed's hit would have been significant for the Patriots, as he leads the team in receiving yards and plays a pivotal role.
E.J. Speed is having a standout season with career-high tackles, but the recent fine could impact his financial outlook unless he secures a new contract.
