Titans’ Amani Hooker fined for Week 14 infraction vs. Dolphins

Titans S Amani Hooker was fined a hefty sum for a hit on Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle in Week 14.

Tennessee Titans safety Amani Hooker is once again a little lighter in the wallet after he was fined for a hit on Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle in Week 14.

The play in question came in the first quarter when Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa threw a pass over the middle to Waddle, who was met by Hooker, leading to a big hit.

While the hit wasn’t flagged at the time, the league has deemed it as illegal, which will now cost the Titans safety $21,855.

This is the second week in a row in which Hooker has been hit with a fine. He was also penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct in Week 13 after he did a throat slash gesture against the Indianapolis Colts. That cost him $13,659.

While he’s lost some money recently, Hooker is in the midst of a fantastic season for Tennessee overall and has been worth every penny of the three-year, $30 million extension he signed last year.
