Fortunately for the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints, no one was seriously injured during their training camp brawl during joint practice on Tuesday. Unfortunately for both teams, they were both hit with matching $500,000 fines for their actions. It's understandable how they're coming down with a real severe fine.” If the fine stands, Jones stated he also plans to fine the individual players involved in the brawl, namely linebacker Donovan Ezeiruaku, who ripped the helmet off New Orleans Saints offensive tackle Taliese Fuaga and threw a punch at Saints offensive lineman Erik McCoy.
