When Panthers running back Mike Davis tweeted a couple weeks ago he hoped he doesn’t get fined for trucking Vikings rookie D.J. Wonnum, we assumed he was joking. The league office has never been known for its sense of humor, though.
Davis says he was indeed fined $17,000 for this gorgeous run from Week 14 when he drilled a hole directly through Wonnum’s chest with his head.
