NFL Won't Fine Harbaugh, Schwartz
Oct 31, 2014 10:36 AM
The NFL will not fine coaches Jim Harbaugh and Jim Schwartz for their postgame altercation Sunday, according to an ESPN.com report.
In celebration of a victory at Detroit, 49ers coach Harbaugh gave Lions coach Schwartz a roundhouse handshake and a backslap that Schwartz took offense to. A scrum broke out, with coaches and players involved.
"Fortunately, there was no fighting and thus no basis for a fine," league spokesman Greg Aiello said Monday. "However, both coaches told (NFL executive VP) Ray Anderson today that their postgame conduct was wrong and will not happen again. We believe their response is the correct one and that their postgame conduct going forward will be more appropriate."
