Sheldon Richardson won the “Good Guy” award from the local media this week. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson might disagree with that award, however.

The Browns defensive end was fined $42,000 by the NFL for a personal foul penalty in Week 16. Richardson shoved Jackson after the action on the play. It came in the fourth quarter of Baltimore’s 31-15 win and helped set up a 1st-and-goal situation for Jackson and the Ravens.

Richardson was not fined for his role in an altercation that escalated along the sidelines involving Ravens cornerback Marcus Peters and Browns teammate Sheldrick Redwine. Peters had earlier knocked Browns RB Dontrell Hilliard from the game with a vicious hit directly to the knees, an injury that ended Hilliard’s season.
