Green Bay Packers tight end Jermichael Finley will appeal his $15,750 (9,800) fine from the NFL for his block on Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs.
The incident occurred during the his side's win over the Ravens on Sunday when he was blocking Suggs on a run play and was adjudged on review by the league to have "unnecessarily struck a defenceless player in the head and neck area".
Finley wrote on Twitter: "Thanks To @NFL For The Fine For Playing Football."
He added to ESPN: "I really don't care about it, but just the fact that if it was a play where I was trying to do it, I'd take the fine, but I won't take it."
The Packers are 3-2 in their season following their victory over the Ravens.
