Sunday’s loss to the Cardinals was costly to the Eagles, and it was particularly costly to two Eagles.

Eagles defensive end Jason Babin was fined $15,750 for a horse-collar tackle, while cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was fined $7,875 for an unnecessary late hit.

Babin, who has now been fined twice in the first three games of this season, was not penalized for his horse-collar tackle, but the league office determined after looking at the tape that he should have been.

Rodgers-Cromartie was penalized for the late hit.
