He was penalized on the play for roughing the passer. The Colts ended up scoring a touchdown two plays later on a pass to TE Tyler Warren .
Hicks wasn't the only player penalized last week's game.
Perhaps the most notable fine of the week came against Colts guard Matt Goncalves on the Warren touchdown, when Goncalves acted out himself chugging a beer as part of the celebration.
The league ruled it an illegal celebration and vulgar act. Goncalves was not penalized on the play and he plans to appeal the fine. He was one of three players fined for beer-chugging celebrations.
