- NFL fined Quinn Meinerz for sharing notice of drug test on social media
After he pancaked Los Angeles Rams star defensive lineman Aaron Donald in Week 3, Denver Broncos guard Quinn Meinerz received a notice from the NFL that he would be tested for performance-enhancing substances .
It was ironic timing for what the NFL describes as a random drug test, but the league didn't appreciate Meinerz sharing a photo of his notice on his Instagram story. Meinerz was fined about $15,000 for posting it, according to multiple reports .

Meinerz and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle were previously fined $14,926 each following their touchdown celebration in Week 3. Both players appealed those fines , but there hasn't been any news yet on a verdict for those appeals.
