The NFL has fined Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams $50,000 for his actions toward a concussion doctor on the sideline during the team's Week 6 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, a league source confirmed to ESPN's Adam Schefter on Friday.
According to CBS Sports, which first reported the fine, the league deemed that Adams «directed verbal remarks and made inappropriate physical conduct» with an unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant (UNC) who was preparing to evaluate Seahawks wide receiver Jake Bobo for a possible concussion late in the third quarter.
CBS Sports reports that the league reviewed unspecified video of the incident before fining Adams. A video recap of Seattle's loss to Cincinnati, posted on the Seahawks' YouTube page, briefly shows Adams repeatedly shouting «He good!» as the UNC and Bobo walked past him on their way to the medical tent for evaluation.
The clip does not show any physical contact between Adams and the UNC. Bobo had taken a hard hit from safety Dax Hill at the end of a 20-yard reception, which drew a penalty for unnecessary roughness.
