A long list of NFL penalties from the Eagles-Steelers game Originally published NBC Sports Philadelphia

It was a physical and chippy game between the Eagles and Steelers last week that resulted in a total of seven penalties.

Here is the NFL’s complete list of penalties from the Eagles’ 27-13 win:

• Eagles S Sydney Brown was fined $6,981 for unnecessary roughness against the Steelers that got him knocked out. Brown suffered a concussion on the opening kickoff and has now been penalized for the game. The NFL claims Brown led with his helmet on.

• Eagles LB Zack Baun was fined $8,888 for unnecessary roughness (hip drop tackle) in the first quarter.

• Eagles DT Jalen Carter was fined $11,817 for unnecessary roughness (hitting/kicking/kneeling) in the fourth quarter. It is played on a punt before the drive with 10:29 left to end the game.

• Eagles CB Quinyon Mitchell was fined $14,069 for unsportsmanlike conduct in the first quarter. He came to the defense of his teammate Darius Slay.

• Slay was also fined $14,069 for unsportsmanlike conduct for his altercation with Pittsburgh TE Darnell Washington.

• Pittsburgh’s Washington was fined $6,760 for unnecessary roughness on a play where he blocked the pass until it went to the wall.

• Steelers WR Calvin Austin was also fined $6,173 for unnecessary roughness in the first quarter during that scrimmage.

In case you were wondering, Pittsburgh cornerback James Pierre Jr. was not penalized for a hip drop tackle on AJ Brown in the fourth quarter of the game. Brown hurt his ankle in that game, but that injury was not listed on the Eagles’ injury report this week.

The amount of these fines is defined in the CBA between the NFL and the NFLPA. All players are given the opportunity to appeal their penalty.
