Minkah Fitzpatrick to Appeal Fine for Hit on KC Concepcion

New York Jets safety Minkah Fitzpatrick confirmed Thursday that he received and will appeal an NFL fine for the hit that concussed Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion last Sunday. Fitzpatrick defended the play as a legal, bang-bang football maneuver, stating he hit a defenseless receiver rather than targeting the head, while expressing gladness that Concepcion has returned to practice this week.
