Getting fined by the NFL is nothing new for Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch. According to an ESPN.com report Lynch has been docked 12-thousand dollars for a hand gesture he made during Oakland’s 26-16 victory over Tennessee last Sunday.

The former Seattle Seahawk was caught on camera by CBS raising the middle finger on both hands
During the fourth quarter.

Lynch, who came out of retirement after 1 year to join the Raiders via trade this season, was fined multiple times during his six-year career in Seattle. Lynch was fined $10,000 in 2011 for wearing cleats with a Skittles design on them. He was also fined a total of $150,000 over two occasions in 2013 & 2014 for refusing to speak with the media.
