Two weeks ago, James Harrison threatened to retire and skipped practice after he was fined for a pair of hits on Browns' receivers Joshua Cribbs and Mohamed Massaquoi. The Steelers have to hope that his second fine in three weeks won't push him over the edge.ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that Harrison will be fined for his hit on Drew Brees that resulted in a roughing the passer call. Harrison was flagged for hitting Brees from behind a count too late after Brees has gotten rid of the ball.
It was not a helmet-to-helmet blow, but with the NFL in crackdown mode (and Harrison under the very close watch of the NFL offices) apparently it was enough to catch the NFL league office's eyes.
