The NFL has fined the Minnesota Vikings’ [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/minnesota-vikings/] linebacker Dallas Turner twice following the Week 10 game against the Baltimore Ravens [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/baltimore-ravens/]. The league has handed down the punishment for two separate hits that violated the rulebook. One of them includes a hit on Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson [http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lamar-jackson/]. According to the NFL’s official website, Turner is fined $17,389 for each offense, bringing his total to $34,778. The first offense stemmed from an unnecessary roughness call for a hip-drop tackle at 15:00 in the first quarter. Next, Dallas invited trouble again by tackling Lamar in the second quarter at 0:10. It all happened when Dallas broke through the B gap and grabbed Jackson around the waist before bringing him down for a 10-yard loss. Soon, it resulted in a penalty, allowing Baltimore to kick a field goal before halftime. The Vikings recorded a 19-27 loss later in the night at U.S. Bank Stadium. This is a developing story, stay tuned for more!
