Norman reportedly fined for Beckham incidents
Norman and Beckham tangled from the earliest moments of Sunday’s game, when Norman slammed Beckham to the ground after one of the Giants’ first plays.

The NFL announced Monday it would suspend Beckham for one game for his actions against the Panthers, citing “multiple violations of safety-related playing rules”.
The appeals officer was James Thrash, who is jointly appointed by the NFL and NFL Players association. According to Bleacher Report, Odell said that he was not raised to act the way he did, and he felt there were many people who deserved an apology from him. I am not here to make excuses for my conduct.
“After the game, putting all the pieces together I think it may have had an impact in the way Odell was acting”, Wing said. This is about my behavior, and I am responsible for my behavior.
Beckham and Norman, who the Giants said had taunted the receiver, were involved in several skirmishes during the game in a showdown match-up of the two Pro Bowl players.
Ball seemed to deny the accusation he threatened Beckham, telling Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer, “If I had $1 for all the ex-girlfriends that have false accusations about me…”
And while Rivera sees nothing wrong with the secondary’s bat tradition, he plans to end it.
Elsewhere • Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy said he has played most of the season with a torn right rotator cuff and the past two weeks with a broken left hand that required surgery. Rivera said homophobic slurs are an important social issue and he doesn’t take them lightly. They’re probably going to send me something about that… but I’m going to appeal it, and I’m going to get my justified case about the whole situation.
As for Coughlin’s comments that the Panthers had agitated Beckham, Rivera said he has a lot of respect for the Giants’ longtime coach. Beckham will not play in Sunday night’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings because of his actions this past week vs. the Carolina Panthers. “Until we hear something concrete, we are not going to react to it”, he said.

Beckham received the ban on Monday for repeated on-field confrontations with Carolina cornerback Josh Norman in a 38-35 home loss to the undefeated Panthers on Sunday. Norman also was penalized once for a personal foul. “He had retreated and had his hands in the air, and (Norman) then body slammed him”, Wing said.
