NFL Hits Cowboys With Double Punishment Ahead of Cardinals Game

The Dallas Cowboys won 38-21 against their NFC East divisional rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles on October 26, breaking their two game losing streak. But the Week 7 victory came at a cost, as two Cowboys defenders have been hit with league-imposed fines ahead of their Week 8 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. According to the NFL’s official Week 7 accountability list , linebacker Shemar James and rookie defensive tackle L.T. Overton have been hit with fines worth $6,171 and $6,013 respectively. Overton was flagged for “A hit on a Quarterback”, more specifically, for a “Blow to the head/neck”.
