<h2 class="wp-block-heading">NFL Fine for Throwing a Football into the Stands, Plus Other High Crimes and Misdemeanors</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you ever wondered what the NFL fine is for throwing a ball into the stands or when a player kicks a football into the stands? We have that answer below. Also, here&#8217;s the current list of other NFL fines imposed on players and coaches.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The fines collected do not go to the NFL, but instead go to programs for former players. The Players Association and the league have agreed to donate fine money through the NFL Foundation to the NFL Player Care Foundation and the Gene Upshaw Players Association’s Players Assistance Trust.</p>
