Washington Redskins nose tackle Chris Baker's wallet is a little lighter on Friday, as the NFL has handed him a fine of $8,268 for his role in an on-field fight with the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.

Philadelphia Eagles left tackle Jason Peters was also fined $10,000, per an Associated Press report.

The brawl took place after Baker leveled Eagles QB Nick Foles with an apparent blindside hit in the fourth quarter. The teams quickly got into a war of words that escalated into a pushing and shoving match. Peters and Baker were both ejected after the melee.

As released by the league, Peters' fine was for striking an opponent in the head while play was halted. Baker was fined for grabbing and pulling an Eagles player's facemask.

Neither player faces suspension going forward for their respective actions.
