ESPN: 2 Detroit Lions Heavily Fined by the NFL for Misconduct Against the Buffalo Bills.

Due to their behavior during their most recent game against the Buffalo Bills, two Detroit Lions players have been fined. Following disturbances in the game’s second quarter, the fines were imposed.

The Lions who received fines in Week 15 are listed below:

When Kwon Alexander struck the quarterback’s head or neck, he roughed the passer and was fined $6,722. At 3:01 in the second quarter, the violation took place.

Brian Branch received a $10,128 punishment for acting in an unsportsmanlike manner (taunting). An incident that occurred at 1:53 in the second quarter led to this penalty.
These penalties demonstrate how the league continues to police player safety and sportsmanship. As the season progresses, the Detroit Lions will probably try to resolve these problems.

Before being released, Detroit Lions S Brandon Joseph was placed into police custody.

Brandon Joseph, a safety for the Detroit Lions, was arrested by police on Saturday morning but has since been freed. Although they were unable to elaborate on the circumstances behind Joseph’s arrest, a representative for the Dearborn Heights police department verified the information to Sports Illustrated.

@LionsFan097 first shared the rumor on X (previously Twitter).

Joseph was removed off the Lions’ active roster on Saturday along with his custody. When Sports Illustrated contacted the team for a statement, a representative refused to respond, stating that “Joseph is no longer on the team.”

Second-year safety Joseph had participated in all 14 of the season’s games. Due to secondary injuries, he has occasionally helped on defense even though his primary role was on special teams.

More information on Joseph’s arrest and his future is still unknown as the case progresses.
