NFL fines Jauan Jennings $12,172 for striking Tre'von Moehrig

San Francisco 49ers receiver Jauan Jennings has been fined $12,172 for striking Carolina Panthers safety Tre’von Moehrig at the end of their recent game. The incident occurred as time expired and followed an earlier provocation where Moehrig delivered a blow to Jennings. Despite the nature of the altercation, the NFL opted not to suspend Jennings, contrasting with the suspension of Lions safety Brian Branch for a similar hit on Chiefs receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster. Moehrig, however, received a suspension for his actions, which went unnoticed by officials during the game. The NFL's disciplinary actions highlight a firm stance on player conduct, emphasizing suspensions over fines for actions deemed flagrant and disrespectful.
