Struggling Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has been fined $20,000 by the NFL for abusive conduct toward a game official during Chicago's blowout loss to Arizona in Week 9.
Cutler was fined as a result of verbal abuse toward the back judge, which drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the Bears' 41-21 loss to the Cardinals. The Bears have lost four of their past five games.
Acquired in an offseason trade from Denver, Cutler leads the league in interceptions after throwing five in Thursday's 10-6 loss in San Francisco. His 76.0 quarterback rating is among the lowest in the league.
Meanwhile, Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris was fined $7,500 for unnecessarily striking an opponent. He was ejected just 65 seconds into the game for slugging Cardinals offensive tackle Deuce Lutui.
Harris was ejected and later apologized.
