The only member of the Green Bay Packers to be fined for an on-field action coming out of the controversial Week 7 loss to the Detroit Lions was cornerback Brandon Cisse, who was fined $9,459 for taunting.
The play -- which happened at the 7:08 mark in the first quarter -- was not penalized on the field. The FOX replay of the play showed Cisse holding the facemask of Lions receiver Isaac TeSlaa while the two players argued after the play.

Among the players not fined: Devonte Wyatt, who was flagged for unnecessary roughness, and Brenton Cox Jr. and Karl Brooks, who were flagged for roughing the passer.
The Lions, meanwhile, had two players fined: Brian Branch for unnecessary roughness (use of helmet) and Derrick Barnes for a late hit. Branch wasn't penalized when he hit Tucker Kraft in the helmet with his own helmet in the first half. Barnes for flagged for a late hit on MarShawn Lloyd in the fourth quarter. Branch's fine is almost $24,000.
Cisse becomes the sixth different Packers player to be fined this season. His taunting fine comes just one week after Matthew Golden was fined for flexing after a catch in Week 6. No Lions were fined for taunting.
While not considered an on-field accountability fine, Packers safety Xavier McKinney was fined $25,000 for criticizing the officials following the game, per ESPN's Adam Schefter .
