Khristian Boyd of the New Orleans Saints has been fined $4,600 for a hit on Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith during their Week 3 game. The hit resulted in Smith entering the concussion protocol and has kept him from practicing ahead of Week 4.
Boyd's hit, which was not flagged during the game, occurred as Smith was tackled after a catch. This marks Boyd's first fine in the NFL, occurring in just his third game. Smith, a key player for the Eagles, may miss the upcoming matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
