Green Bay Packers safety Xavier McKinney has been fined $25,000 by the NFL for a profane outburst directed at game officials, the league announced on Saturday.
The penalty stems from McKinney's postgame comments criticizing the refereeing crew following the Packers' recent match. The NFL's discipline schedule classifies such language as a violation of its conduct policy.
McKinney, who joined the Packers in the offseason, has not publicly commented on the fine. The team is preparing for its next game as the regular season continues.
