NFL Fines SeahawksKenneth Walker III $11,593 for Taunting as Devon Witherspoon Also Penalized

The discipline highlights the league’s strict stance on taunting as Seattle turns toward Week 5 against Tampa Bay.

Overview

  • The league issued the fine to Walker for a Week 4 incident against Arizona in which he pointed at Kei'Trel Clark and threw the ball at him, per Tom Pelissero.
  • Clark, who had yanked Walker’s leg after the tackle, was neither flagged during the game nor fined afterward.
  • Seattle cornerback Devon Witherspoon received a separate $11,593 fine for taunting from the same game.
  • The $11,593 penalty represents less than one percent of Walker’s $1,856,125 2025 salary, according to Spotrac figures cited in reports.
  • Walker logged 81 rushing yards on 19 carries plus a 29-yard catch in the 23-20 win and remains central to Seattle’s offense as it hosts the Buccaneers in Week 5.
