Eagles' A.J. Brown Fined $10,927 for Unsportsmanlike Conduct Toward Emmanuel Forbes

Philadelphia Eagles star wideout A.J. Brown received further punishment from the NFL for the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty he received against the Washington Commanders last Sunday.

The league handed the All-Pro a $10,927 fine Saturday, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Brown was penalized late in the fourth quarter after catching the game's go-ahead touchdown over Commanders rookie Emmanuel Forbes Jr. with 1:43 remaining in regulation.

He placed the ball at Forbes' feet and talked some trash, leading to the penalty.

That play turned out to be pretty costly for Philadelphia as it gave Washington great field position, allowing it to drive the ball down the field and score the game-tying touchdown to force overtime.
