Damontae Kazee – Noteworthy
S Damontae Kazee of the Atlanta Falcons was fined $10,026 by the NFL on Friday for his hit on quarterback Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers in last Sunday’s game.
Kazee, who was ejected from the game, has apologized to Newton. He could have been suspended by the NFL, which would have meant his fine would have been one game check, $32,647. “I was playing too fast in the game and trying to make a play and overplayed it,” Kazee said, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “I apologize for him and for hitting him like that, but I didn’t do it on purpose. I was just trying to make a play, that’s all.
