The New York Jets safety was fined nearly $25,000 for his tackle of Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin last Sunday, but Pryor plans to appeal it.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Calvin Pryor was hit hard by the NFL for a hard hit.
Pryor was asked what he would suggest the fine should be,

"Zero,
Hydro Flask ?terf?rs?ljare," he said with a laugh. "I'm just thinking about my daughter, my family, all the (things) I could do with $25,000, man. I'll see what they say and just keep playing football."
Pryor initially posted his displeasure on Instagram on Wednesday with a post that included a picture of the hit and the caption: "25k really?? Cmon man."
"I don't know if it was a clean hit or not, but I don't think it was worth $25,000," Pryor said Wednesday. "It was a first offense, as well. My first fine. I'm going to appeal it and see how it goes. Hopefully, it can be reduced."
"It happened so fast,

The NFL deemed that Pryor struck the head and neck area of Baldwin,
