NY GIANTS FINE CORNERBACK ELI APPLE FOR TWEETING DURING GAME:
Apple was inactive for the game and not in uniform. However, tweeting from the sidelines, or in the immediate aftermath of games, is prohibited by the league.
“I wasn’t confused. It was just a mistake by me,” Apple said Thursday.
Apple hasn’t played in over a month as he’s been inactive for the Giants’ last four games. While the policy against tweeting is a league rule, the Giants fining him takes care of the matter and he won’t be fined by the league as well.
Huh. I thought the NFL couldn’t enforce against inappropriate sideline behavior…
