NFL Punishes Texans Player After Week 3 Loss to Colts

The NFL fined Houston Texans linebacker Jamal Hill $5,972 for unnecessary roughness following an illegal blindside block on special teams against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 3. KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson reported that the fine was reduced because it was Hill's first infraction under league rules.

A first-time offense under NFL guidelines can carry a fine of up to $17,911, with second infractions reaching $23,882. Hill, a 2024 sixth-round draft pick in his third season with Houston, has served as a key contributor on special teams across recent games.
