NFL fines Falcons' Jake Matthews $11,941 for Week 2 facemask

The NFL fined Atlanta left tackle Jake Matthews $11,941 for a facemask penalty in the Falcons’ 34-3 Week 2 loss to Carolina. The foul erased a 25-yard completion and left Atlanta facing first-and-16 at its own 6-yard line.

Atlanta still scored a 41-yard Nick Folk field goal on the drive, its only points of the game. The NFL lists $11,941 for a first facemask offense and $17,911 for a second.
