\"Trent<\/a><\/center>Trent Williams will have to fork over another five digits to the league office.<\/p>\n

The NFL announced on Saturday that the San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Williams has been fined $11,817 for punching Kansas City Chiefs safety Bryan Cook in Week 7,\u00a0per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Cook has also been fined $8,442.64 for throwing the first punch at Williams.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred late in the fourth quarter of Kansas City\u2019s eventual 28-18 win over San Francisco (see the video here). Williams was ejected from the game on the spot, but Cook was not penalized because the refs apparently missed his instigation.<\/p>\n

The reason why Williams\u2019 fine ended up being larger than Cook\u2019s fine is that fines are based on a percentage of a player\u2019s salary. Williams, who is making $27.7 million in cash this season, has a significantly bigger salary than Cook, who is making $1.2 million cash in the third year of his rookie contract.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old Williams is definitely no stranger to all this though. He has been fined millions of dollars over the course of his NFL career due to his many on-field altercations (including in the playoffs).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
