Jets' Jamal Adams Rips NFL over 'Bulls--t' $21K Fine for Hit on Baker Mayfield

New York Jets safety Jamal Adams' tough week only got worse after the NFL fined him $21,000 for a roughing-the-passer penalty against the Cleveland Browns on Monday.

"This league is a damn joke!" Adams tweeted Wednesday while showing video of the play.

"I just got fined $21k for this hit, I signed up to play football not two hand touch. Bulls--t! I don't give a damn about these soft rules protecting QBs. Im gonna play MY brand of football everytime I step on the field. SMH."

The Browns faced a 3rd-and-8 midway through the first quarter.
