Randall Cobb fined $13,889 over illegal hit that led to Aaron Rodgers-Jihad Ward feud

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was right about one thing: Randall Cobb did lose preseason money. Cobb was reportedly fined $13,889 after his illegal hit on New York Giants defensive back Bobby McCain during the team's final preseason game, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

The hit, and Rodgers' commentary, was captured on HBO's "Hard Knocks." The penalty occurred after Rodgers hit tight end Tyler Conklin with a pass in the flat. Cobb ran to block McCain and hit him with an illegal blindside block. Cobb received a flag on the play.
