Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon was fined $100,000 by the team for his sideline altercation with running back Emari DeMermado during Sunday’s loss to the Tennessee Titans, Arizona Sports confirmed.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter added that there will be no more discipline for the head coach.
After Demermerado’s touchdown run turned into a fumble and touchdown due to his early celebration of the score and dropping the football before crossing the plane, Gannon was seen face-to-face with the running back.
The head coach seemed to say something to Demermera before slapping his shoulders and storming off.
Gannon has since apologized for the outburst.

“I woke up this morning and I didn’t feel good, honestly,” Gannon said Monday. “At the team meeting I addressed myself. I apologized to Emari, I apologized to the team. I just told them I was letting the moment of what happened get the better of me there.
“I try to be emotionally stable and calm because my job is to solve problems during a match and lead the charge on that. So that’s not really who I am, who I want to be and I told the guys that today.”
