Nearly a week has passed since Keanu Neal delivered a sickening helmet-to-helmet blow to Jordan Matthews..a hit that went unpunished and unseen by the officials. However, the NFL have taken action against the Falcons Safety.
#Falcons S Keanu Neal was fined $24,309 for that nasty hit on Jordan Matthews. There wasn’t a flag, but this fine says there should’ve been.

The Eagles move on to face the Seattle Seahawks this weekend..but Matthews has been listed as questionable due to back spasms.
