The Seahawks quarterback was fined for unsportsmanlike conduct, as was cornerback Riq Woolen.
After avoiding any in-game fines against the Atlanta Falcons, the Seattle Seahawks weren’t as fortunate following their heavy 31-10 loss against the Buffalo Bills. In fact, they were tied with the Cleveland Browns for most fines in Week 8, and led the NFL in total fines incurred . Outside linebacker Derick Hall was fined for his roughing the passer penalty on Josh Allen, which turned what would’ve been a field goal attempt into an eventual back-breaking touchdown before halftime.
Smith admitted in a press conference earlier in the week that he need to keep his emotions in check. “I’m really not a great loser. It sucks, I hate it. I need to, overall, when I watch myself, hey man, just continue to uplift the guys, and if I’m being honest, do a better job at times when we’re down. Those are things that I’m constantly improving. I’m not going to say I’m perfect at it. I’m very emotional when it comes to winning and when it comes to doing the right thing.
