Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola isn’t the only player who drew a fine as a result of a penalty they committed in last weekend’s divisional playoff game.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Chiefs linebacker Dezman Moses drew a $17,363 fine after drawing a roughing the passer penalty in the loss to the Patriots.

Moses picked up the penalty in the second quarter of the game for hitting Patriots quarterback Tom Brady late on an incompletion to Brandon LaFell. The penalty moved the Patriots into the red zone and Brady would sneak the ball into the end zone a few plays later to give the Patriots a 14-3 lead on their way to a 27-20 victory.

Moses and Amendola also scuffled with each other after Amendola’s block on Jamell Fleming during a punt play that led to his own fine, although neither was fined for that interaction.
