Jake Bobo and the Unnecessary Roughness Incident
The Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos played a relatively clean football game, but the NFL still issued a couple of fines. In the opening quarter, Broncos player Nik Bonitto received an $8,791 fine for roughing the passer on Geno Smith. However, the most pressing issue involved Jake Bobo, where Broncos safety Brandon Jones was penalized for ripping Bobo's helmet off during a play. This incident occurred in the fourth quarter when Jones was tackling during a -4 yard rush for Kenneth Walker III.
