The Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall must be glad to know that the Atlanta Falcons Coach Mike Smith has been fined $15,000 by the NFL for the sideline scuffle in which, the Redskins CB, who used to play four seasons in Falcons jersey, accused Smith and other Falcons staff of doing improper things to him.
The league also fined Falcons director of athletic performance Jeff Fish $2,500, Redskins safety LaRon Landry $7,500 and Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth $5,000, but did not fine Hall, who was also involved in the scuffle. Smith confirmed the report on Thursday, but he would not like to mention the amount.
The scuffle resulted from Landry’s hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. While Landry and Ryan returned to game soon as if nothing serious ever happened, Hall was surrounded by opposing players, along with Smith and Fish when he went to Falcons sideline with purpose of helping teammate out. Hall said Smith cursed at him and Fish and others put their hands on him. He also said that he would file a complaint against them with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
