Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair has earned a reputation as one of the league\u2019s dirtiest players, and he\u2019s been disciplined again for a hit from last week.<\/p>\n
The NFL has fined Al-Shaair $23,186 for unnecessary roughness\/use of the helmet for a hit in last week\u2019s game against the Chargers. The officials did not flag Al-Shaair on the play.<\/p>\n
This is Al-Shaair\u2019s third fine of the season for an illegal hit. He was also fined for a hit on a defenseless receiver against the Broncos, and for roughing the passer against the Titans.<\/p>\n
Last season Al-Shaair was suspended three games for a hit that gave Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence a concussion, as well as for a fight that broke out after Al-Shaair\u2019s hit.<\/p>\n
Al-Shaair is on a three-year, $34 million contract, so a $23,186 fine is not a particularly significant amount of money to him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair has earned a reputation as one of the league\u2019s dirtiest players, and he\u2019s been…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":386522,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-386521","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=386521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386521\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/386522"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=386521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=386521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=386521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
