Today, two young, rapidly ascending NFL stars felt their first pangs of the NFL’s pecuniary wrath. Sauce Gardner and Amon-Ra St Brown were both fined for the first time in their young careers for some slightly ‘over eager’ in-play antics. Now, both have reacted on Twitter to Tom Pelissero’s breaking of the news, per their own personal accounts.

Almost 5% of my salary. I’m hurtingg https://t.co/vwrC1LPDk5
— Amon-Ra (@amonra_stbrown) November 25, 2023
Both of these reactions hold along the same theme; although the pain is considerably greater for the 4th round overachiever, Amon-Ra St Brown, whose total contract values considerably less than Sauce Gardner’s fully guaranteed $33 million deal as the 4th overall pick in the 2022 draft.
As first offences, these are obviously fairly painful for the young bucks, but as both sterling players at their respective positions, they will both likely earn all of that, and substantially more when they are eligible for contract extension (this offseason for Amon-Ra St Brown).
