When it comes to the NFL's uniform police, no one is above the law. The Boston Globe reported New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has been fined for not having his chin strap properly buckled.

Reiss reports that Brady's agent, Don Yee, confirmed the fine but would not say how much Brady was fined or which game the violation occurred in.

This isn't the first such fine for the Patriots this season; defensive lineman Ty Warren was fined $7,500 for not having his chin strap buckled in a Sept. 23 game against the Bills. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said teams were notified before the season and reminded multiple times that the league would be cracking down on unbuckled chin straps as an effort to prevent concussions.

I'm glad to see him get fined for not buckling his chin strap. All players should have to have their chin strap done up...just like in high school. The strap is there for their own safety.

LOL. Simple things like this... Is it that hard to follow the rules?

I laugh at this because I hate Tom Brady. 7,500 probably isn't much to him anyways, but hey it sucks for him.

I hope you were being sarcastic...

Why should I? I hate the Pats.

Why should I? I hate the Pats.

I just don't see the satisfaction it would bring...if Eli or Peyton got fined I wouldn't be that happy. They have the money to pay it so what does it matter?

7,500 is pocket change to Brady.

It's so he wont get a possable career ending concussion or at least season ending....

Concussions mess people up..And they make you forget were your at and stuff...
(I got one from an elbow to my chin and I thought I was at my house and I started talking to my friend who wasn't there)

No its not his fault if he gets injured. As his employer, the NFL is responsible, thus the fine.

What's the point of even fining an NFL player 7500 dollars?
