ESPN: ”This is what you could have done all along,” Bengals’ Zac Taylor reacts to QB Joe Burrow’s best decision to…..

Joe Burrow, the quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals, has been dealt yet another knock to the head, but this time there has been no repercussions, either on the field or at the league office.

Despite making contact with Burrow in the head during Sunday’s 37-27 victory against Cincinnati at Nissan Stadium, the National Football League did not penalize defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons of the Tennessee Titans. On a third-and-goal play from the three-yard line, Simmons hit Burrow in the head, which resulted in an incomplete pass with six seconds remaining before halftime.

In the beginning of this season, Simmons was made to pay a fine for a blow to the head. As a result of his hit on New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the National Football League penalized him $16,883 in fines. Simmons’ hit against Rodgers resulted in a penalty of 15 yards, in contrast to the infraction that occurred on Sunday against Burrow.

Jones was issued a punishment of $22,511 by the league, despite the fact that the officials did not call a penalty on the play, which would have provided the Bengals with another opportunity to take the lead with the two-point convert. A punishment was issued to the defensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens, Travis Jones, for a strike to the head that he delivered to Burrow during the game-deciding two-point convert during Week 10 at Baltimore.

After having his facemask snatched and his head twisted during Week 12’s game against the Chargers in Los Angeles, Burrow suffered an injury and a fumble as a result of the incident. Nevertheless, neither a penalty nor a fine was imposed for that offense.

Trey Hendrickson was able to avoid receiving a fine for the unnecessary roughness penalty he committed when he shoved Tennessee quarterback Will Levis to the ground at the conclusion of Cam Taylor-Britt’s interception return in the second quarter.

A fine of $9,019 was levied against Taylor-Britt for “unsportsmanlike conduct (violent gesture)” after he returned to the tournament. In the beginning of this season, Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas was penalized for a violent gesture, but he was successful in appealing the decision. During Week 5, wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase was also punished with a fine for making a violent gesture, and the decision to reprimand him was upheld following a hearing.

The penalty for a low block that Tennessee guard Peter Skoronski committed in the third quarter, which was 15 yards, did not result in a fine.
