Talk about a double whammy.

Oakland Raiders rookie safety Johnathan Abram is being fined for the same hit that also led to his season-ending shoulder injury, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

The NFL has informed Abram, who underwent surgery, that he is being penalized $28,075 for lowering his head to initiate contact during the Raiders' win over the Denver Broncos on Monday night.

The play occurred late in the first half when Abram knocked Broncos wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton out of bounds to prevent a completion. The hit resulted in a rotator cuff injury for Abram.

Abram was not flagged on the play, but he was hit with a penalty for lowering his head on another hit in the third quarter. However, as of Friday afternoon, he had not received any additional discipline from the league.

Pelissero adds that Abram will be appealing the fine.

The 22-year-old, who played his collegiate football at Mississippi State, was selected by Oakland in the first round (27th pick overall) of the 2019 NFL Draft.

He actually began his NCAA career at Georgia in 2015, but transferred after one season. Due to transfer rules, he could not begin his Mississippi State tenure until 2017, when he totaled 71 tackles, five tackles for loss, a couple of sacks, a pair of forced fumbles and five passes defended in what was considered his junior campaign.

Abram then concluded his time with the Bulldogs by racking up 99 tackles, nine tackles for loss, three sacks, two interceptions, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and five passes defended during his senior year.

He logged five tackles in the Raiders' season opener.
