Trent Williams was fined $11,817 and Bryan Cook was fined $8,442.64 for late-game fighting

The 49ers' Trent Williams was sent off for an altercation with the Chiefs' Bryan Cook late in the fourth quarter on Sunday, and both players were fined for the interaction.

The NFL fined Williams $11,817.00 and Cook $8,442.64 for their actions.

Williams and Cook are both lucky that the NFL's discipline wasn't harsher. It sets a dangerous precedent for the NFL to impose lax penalties on players who take cheap shots in garbage time when they know the game is out of reach and a 15-yard penalty has no bearing on the outcome of the game has. Williams made about $200 million in his career, so this fine is a chump change for him. A ban would have sent a message.

The 49ers' Deommodore Lenoir was also fined $11,817 for taking a cheap shot late in the fourth quarter.
