Cowboys cornerback Frank Walker has been fined $7,500 by the league for unnecessary roughness. His hit out of bounds on Dolphins tight end Anthony Fasano drew a 15-yard penalty. The Cowboys held the Dolphins to a field goal, even though the penalty set them up at the Dallas 3.
Walker is the third Dallas player to draw a fine from the league this season for an illegal hit. Receiver Kevin Ogletree was fined $7,500 for a facemask penalty on 49ers cornerback Tarell Brown in Week 2, and linebacker DeMarcus Ware was docked $15,000 after a roughing the passer penalty on Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.

I'm glad he was fined. Now he will think twice about hurting the team again with such a foolish act.

I really understand about the fines but the one I really don't agree on is the fine on DeMarcus Ware. That hit was not bad.I think he got a raw deal on that one.
