New Orleans Saints Owner Gayle Benson wrote a “strongly worded letter” to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell requesting that the fines for the alleged fake injury by Cameron Jordan be reversed, per Luke Johnson of NOLA.com.
Last month, the NFL imposed fines totaling $550,000. DE Cameron Jordan was fined $50,000, defensive line coach Ryan Nielsen $50,000, Saints head coach Dennis Allen $100,000 and the Saints franchise $350,000. League officials believed that Jordan faked an injury in order to give the defense more time to regroup in the December 5th game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
