The Carolina Panthers have fined four players $10,000 each for breaking the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols during their recent bye week, according to a report by Jeremy Fowler at ESPN.
Wide receivers D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel, rookie defensive tackle Derrick Brown and linebacker Shaq Thompson are the players who were fined. The rule they violated was gathering off-site from the team facility over the bye week.
Moore is still currently on the team’s reserve/COVID-19 list and missed Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos. Starting defensive tackle Zach Kerr is on the list, as well. The other players have all been activated.
