NFL levies two fines to 49ers LB Fred Warner for hit on Commanders TE Chig Okonkwo

San Francisco linebacker Fred Warner faces a significant financial penalty following a recent matchup against Washington. The league penalized the veteran defender over sixty-five thousand dollars due to a collision with tight end Chig Okonkwo during a Monday night victory.

Although the on-field officials initially threw a flag before rescinding the penalty, the office later assessed two distinct sanctions for helmet contact and hitting a defenseless player. This brings the defender's total fines to over one hundred thousand dollars across four separate infractions this season.

Further discipline could lead to an automatic suspension if additional violations occur.
