Kyle Juszczyk Fined by NFL for "Chugging Beer"

Thursday, September 24, 10:00 AM

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk has been fined $14,926 for engaging in an offensive demonstration in Sunday's 35-13 win over the Dolphins. Juszczyk scored a third-quarter touchdown and celebrated by simulating the sharing of a drink with teammate Deebo Samuel Sr. "Your imitation of chugging a beer constituted an offensive demonstration and could reasonably be construed as being in poor taste," the NFL wrote in the fine letter made public on Thursday. Juszczyk has appealed the fine, according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter. An injury-depleted 49ers team will host the Cardinals in Week 3 in a divisional matchup in which they are favored by more than a touchdown, potentially giving the 14th-year fullback another chance to find the end zone.

Mike Washington Jr. a Deep-League Option Only in Week 10

Friday, November 13, 1:02 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Mike Washington Jr. is coming off a rough Week 9 performance, and it won't get any easier for him in Week 10 against the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie has been inheriting more work from struggling back Ashton Jeanty, but was heavily stymied by the 49ers in Week 9 and ended the day with six carries for -5 yards. He will now get a taste of Seattle's top-ranked defense, which is allowing just 21.7 yards per running back per game this season. Washington's workload could still be high given that fellow rookie Fernando Mendoza is making his first career start and the passing game will also be heavily tested. Still, this isn't a matchup fantasy managers should be leaning on in Week 10, especially since Mendoza could opt to run the ball himself at times. Washington is a deep-league-only option against a brutal Seahawks defense.
