The NFL has decided to levy hefty fines against the Pittsburgh Steelers and their head coach, Mike Tomlin, for not wearing masks during the team's 28-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

According to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter, the NFL is fining Tomlin $100,000, while the Steelers franchise itself will be penalized $250,000:

Tomlin has been seen with a mask on in games throughout this season. In fact, he normally sports a neck gaiter with a Steelers logo. It's not clear why he elected to veer from this path on Sunday. In Schefter's photo, you can see that he has the mask pulled down around his neck.

The NFL has not been shy about handing out fines to offenders related to this issue. Several coaches have been fined over the last few weeks. Jon Gruden and the Las Vegas Raiders have been hit the hardest for mask violations. The team has reportedly been stripped of a sixth-round draft pick in 2021 and fined $500,000. Gruden was reportedly hit with an additional $15,000 fine.

“Members of the coaching staff, including the head coach, were not wearing face coverings at all times on the sidelines Sunday in the team’s game against the Ravens,” a source told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

At 7-0 overall, the Steelers are the only undefeated team remaining in the NFL. Tomlin will lead his players back onto the field this Sunday, when they'll face the Cowboys in Dallas. Kick-off is set for 4:25 p.m. ET, with CBS having live broadcast coverage.
