Pollard tweets that he’s been fined $42,000

Titans safety Bernard Pollard figured it might be coming. But that doesn’t mean he’s happy about it.

Pollard tweeted this morning that he had been fined $42,000 for his hit Sunday which left Texans wideout Andre Johnson with a concussion.

So @nfl said I did "everything right" but 42k later I still get fined. Wow! It's called football but they want 2 hand touch. #TitanUp#

Pollard’s contention that he did everything right is subject to debate. He led with the shoulder, but hit Johnson in the helmet in what could be reasonably considered a defenseless position.
