The NFL announced on Wednesday, August 7, that the New York Giants and the Detroit Lions have each been issued fines of $200K for failing to uphold professional conduct during joint training camps.
Giants rookie and former LSU receiver Malik Nabers was involved in a massive scuffle with Detroit Lions safety Kirby Joseph on Tuesday, August 6, during their joint practices. The fight started after Nabers ran a route to Joseph's side of the field. While walking back to the New York side of the ball, Nabers seemed to put a hand in Joseph’s face and shove him.
