Steelers guard Chris Kemoeatu was fined $25,000 for a pair of infractions during the team’s second offensive possession during their 32-20 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
The veteran left guard was fined for a facemask penalty and $15,000 for a late hit/personal foul penalty five plays later. The latter penalty turned a 3rd-and-3 opportunity into 3rd-and-18, and the Steelers came up three yards short of a first down and were forced to punt.
Both flags were the first times Kemoeatu has been penalized this season.
