Last week in a game against the Denver Broncos, Davante Adams got into an argument with an NFL official.
While the Las Vegas Raiders won the game, it is Adams who is losing some money over his actions.
So how much money has the NFL fined Adams, and how are fans reacting to the fine?
Tom Pelissero Reports Adams’ Fine While Fans React
It was NFL insider Tom Pelissero who broke the news of Adams’ fine on Twitter.
The NFL fined #Raiders WR Davante Adams $29,785 for unsportsmanlike conduct – abusive language towards an official in last week’s over the #Broncos.
Adams was upset about a no-call for a hit by Justin Simmons, who was fined $15,914 for unnecessary roughness on the play.

His unsportsmanlike conduct towards an NFL official costs him $29,785.
While the altercation between Adams and the official was because of a missed call, it didn’t give him a pass.
With that blown call in mind, fans were quick to point this out.
For one Twitter user, they feel like the NFL should fine refs for missing calls.
Why don’t they fine referees for egregious missed calls!? The recent Dallas Goedert play, where he got injured, and fumbled due to a obvious face mask, is a perfect example.

Another user is also wondering about what the ref is getting fined for their part of a blown call.

However, not all the reactions were against the ref and the mistake they made last week.
One fan of the Raiders believes Adams is toxic and needs to grow up.
Adams needs to grow up. Just another selfish diva receiver. Adds to the toxicity in Vegas

Their comment might have something to do with Adams shoving a cameraman back in October.
Another fan also points out how things with Adams changed when he left the Packers.
Leaves packers and loses all class, not a conincidence

With fans taking both sides in this story, there wasn’t any lack of fan reaction.
However, Adams can feel a little better knowing the player who hit him also got a fine from the NFL.
