The NFL has fined official Jim Quirk a game check - $8,150 - for inappropriate contact with Green Bay Packers' linebacker Nick Barnett on Sunday. Quirk was summoned to NFL offices Friday to meet with commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations Ray Anderson. In determining the penalty, the league took into account previous incidents, including Quirk's contact Dec. 16 with Atlanta Falcons' fullback Jason Snelling on a kickoff return. Goodell has informed Barnett and Packers' Head Coach Mike McCarthy of the punishment. Barnett's agent Chuck Price who had planned to file a grievance with the NFL over Quirk's behavior, told ESPN's Chris Mortensen, "This action is more than satisfactory. There is now no reason to pursue a grievance." Quirk aggressively grabbed Barnett around the neck and pulled him to the ground during Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. McCarthy was critical of Quirk following the incident.
