GREEN BAY, Wis. – Jon Runyan Sr. took more than $5,000 from his son.
Jon Runyan Jr., the Green Bay Packers’ starting left guard, might take away his father’s Christmas present.
The elder Runyan, who started 192 consecutive games at right tackle during his playing career, was named the NFL’s vice president of rules and policy administration in 2016. In that role, his job is to hand out punishment, whether it’s to Tampa Bay receiver Mike Evans before a big Packers-Buccaneers game, or to fine players for rules infractions.
Runyan Jr. was fined $5,215 for leg-whipping against the Giants last week in London.
