Broncos Von Miller Fined $25,000 for Hit on Sanchez

Denver linebacker Von Miller said he received a letter from the NFL Friday letting him know that he was being fined for hitting Mark Sanchez in the chest.   The letter created a bit of a mystery for Miller in figuring out which hit resulted in the fine.

”The hit that has all the controversy was the one where I hit him in the back a couple of seconds late,” Miller said. ”On that play, my shoulder hit him in the back. I’m kind of foggy about which hit it was. I’m sure it’s one of them.

”I’m not saying that I didn’t commit a hit that I should be fined for, because I did get to him a couple of times, but that’s part of the game now,” Miller said. ”It’s all about player safety and I don’t have anything to say about player safety. We’ve got to make adjustments to take the quarterback down in other ways.”

Miller’s was fined $15,000 earlier this month for hitting Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer in the chin.
