US EditionTre'Von Moehrig to Miss Panthers' Game Against Rams After Suspension Appeal Denied
Moehrig will miss the Panthers' next game and be fined $65,000 after his suspension for striking a player was upheld on appeal, league officials confirmed.
- On Wednesday, the NFL announced Tre'von Moehrig's one-game suspension was upheld on appeal, with Derrick Brooks, one of three NFL/NFLPA-appointed hearing officers, ruling on the case.
- Near the end of Monday night's game, cameras showed Moehrig punching San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings in the groin during the 49ers' 20-9 win.
- Financial and roster notes show the short-term consequences: the suspension will cost Tre'von Moehrig, Carolina Panthers safety, $65,000 and he will be eligible to return next Monday.
- Sunday's game looms with Moehrig unavailable as coach Dave Canales said he has an ankle injury, with Carolina Panthers at 6-6 and a half-game behind Tampa Bay Buccaneers before facing the 8-2 Los Angeles Rams.
- Meanwhile, league discipline shows differing outcomes for the two players as Jaycee Horn remains in the concussion protocol and Jauan Jennings has not been punished by the NFL.
