FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots safety Kyle Dugger was fined $10,520 by the NFL after being ejected for fighting with Indianapolis Colts receiver Michael Pittman Jr. last weekend.
Pittman, who also was ejected, was not fined after the NFL reviewed video of the scuffle. The league also did not fine Colts receiver T.Y. Hilton for making contact with an official in the ensuing pile-up of players, after consultation with the official.
Patriots coach Bill Belichick had questioned why Hilton wasn't ejected for his actions, which came after Dugger and Pittman scrapped following a running play and players from both teams joined the fray.
