NFL fines Light, Crowder $15,000 each for ‘altercation’

NEW YORK — Matt Light of New England and Channing Crowder of Miami have been fined $15,000 apiece by the NFL for what the league called “a verbal and physical altercation” last week.

Neither will be suspended, the league said Wednesday.

Light punched Crowder several times after the Miami player shoved him on a New England field-goal attempt late in Sunday’s 48-28 win over the Dolphins. They also argued before being pushed apart.
