Not only did Nick Foles cost himself a touchdown, he cost himself a nice chunk of change.

The Eagles quarterback was fined $10,000 for his illegal peelback block on Vikings linebacker Erin Henderson last week.

Diving at Henderson’s knees took a DeSean Jackson touchdown off the board in the loss to the Vikings as well, making it a costly mistake for Foles.

Defensive players league-wide, however, are probably celebrating since they don’t feel like they’re being protected.
