"The NFL fined Eagles edge rusher Nolan Smith $11,593 for taunting. That is for the flexing over Cowboys RB Miles Sanders in Week 1," McMullen said.

That's a total of $46,372 in fines for the Eagles after just one game played and it doesn't even include Jalen Carter, who obviously was ejected from the team's Week 1 matchup against the Cowboys.

Philadelphia has been talked about a lot heading into its Week 2 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Most of the noise was about Carter and whether or not he would end up getting suspended for the second game of the season after spitting on Dak Prescott. There was no noise at all about whether any of these three would get fined. Unfortunately for them, that is the case.

The Eagles will take the field for their second game of the season -- and have Carter in the mix -- on Sunday afternoon on the road against the Chiefs in a rematch of Super Bowl LIX. The game itself is one of the most hyped-up matchups of the young season. This trio got some bad news before it, but now it's time to put it behind them.
