The Baltimore Ravens really enjoyed their 34-10 over the Houston Texans last week, so much so that one player was fined.
Offensive tackle Morgan Moses was hit with a $13,659 fine for celebrating last weekend’s victory over the Texans by grabbing a photographer’s camera during the team’s end zone celebration for what the league described as unsportsmanlike conduct, according to a report from Pro Football Talk.
The NFL has rules in place that disallow celebrations using props and are liable to fine players who do.
Moses was seen grabbing a photographer’s camera and using it following a Lamar Jackson touchdown run last week against the Texans, which put the Ravens up 30-10 with just over six minutes to go late in the fourth quarter, effectively icing the divisional-round contest.
As Morgan used the camera, Jackson posed for a photo with Ronnie Stanley, the Ravens’ starting left tackle.
Moses, 32, is a 10-year NFL veteran who was originally selected in the third round (No. 66 overall) in the 2014 draft out of Virginia.
The standout offensive lineman signed a three-year deal worth $15 million to play for the Ravens before the 2022 NFL season.
The last year of his deal is slated to be next season, where he’ll earn a base salary of $5.5 million.
Known for his durability, Moses made at least 16 NFL starts in every season from 2015 up until this season, where he started all 14 of his appearances, now sitting at 142 career starts.
Moses previously played for Washington from 2015-2020 and logged one season with the Jets in 2021 before joining the Ravens.
