He'd be out a lot more than $7,500. As long as the economics of the fines don't affect the play on the field, let them fine all they want - it goes to charity anyway.

First of all, he never hit him in the head. He hit him in the upper chest. Furthermore, it was the first time someone in the Eagles secondary has hit someone all year, and now they get punished for it. That being said, Macho Harris should have been fined for holding the ball like a loaf of bread on that fumbled kickoff return. That was a disgrace. This was just a good hit. The NFL should either let good hits remain part of the game or they should go to two hand touch. This fine is absurd. First of all, he never hit him in the head. He hit him in the upper chest.
