“I even changed masks at halftime to find one that worked better. Sometimes you’ve got to get coached up. Sometimes you have to admit that you screwed up and have got to do better.
“We wear masks all day at practice, we wear them around the building. I know it’s extremely important to wear masks. Sometimes you’ve just got to be reminded. Sometimes you’ve got to get coached up,” Carroll told the team’s official website.
In addition to Shanahan, Fangio, and Carroll, league officials also imposed sanctions on New Orleans Saints’ Sean Payton and Las Vegas Raiders boss Jon Gruden. They will also pay an individual fine of $100K each for failure to adhere to league protocols.
Both the above teams were also handed a $250K fine for the face-mask violation.
