Overview
- The fine stems from a Week 7 run at Detroit in which White lowered his head and made helmet-to-helmet contact with a Lions defender.
- Officials did not throw a flag during the game, with the discipline issued after the NFL’s centralized weekly review.
- The $46,371 figure matches the league’s scheduled amount for a second offense of illegal use of the helmet.
- White continues as Tampa Bay’s lead back with Bucky Irving ruled out for Week 8 against the Saints.
- Tampa Bay is 5-2 atop the NFC South, and quarterback Baker Mayfield was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday’s game.
