Detroit Lions linebacker Jamie Collins was fined $35,096 on Saturday for making contact with an official during the team's Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Pelissero added that Collins is appealing the fine.
Collins was seemingly attempting to show the official that a player had dipped his helmet, but he accidentally contacted the official, which resulted in a flag and an ejection:
