The National Football League has fined the Steelers and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders a total of $50,000 for faking an injuryin at Oct. 21 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, a team source told me.
The Steelers were fined $35,000 and Sanders $15,000 by the league for the incident, which occurred in the final minutes of a 24-17 victory against the Bengals.
Sanders said his leg cramped when he fell to the ground after the play with 5:42 remaining in the fourth quarter and the Steelers leading, 24-17.
Apparently, the league didn't believe him.
