LOS ANGELES -- The NFL fined five players for their roles in a fight during the Chargers' 22-10 victory over the Raiders on Sunday.
Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer was the lone Charger fined. He and Raiders cornerback Jack Jones were both ejected from the game. Palmer was fined $11,255, and Jones was fined $5,472.
Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins and outside linebacker Maxx Crosby were also fined $11,255 for their roles in the fight. Raiders safety Marcus Epps received the largest fine of $11,817.
The fight began after the Raiders stopped running back Gus Edwards from a two-point conversion with 3:40 left in the fourth quarter.
Palmer ran to help wide receiver Ladd McConkey block safety Marcus Epps. Jones ran after Palmer and the two were wrapped up outside of the end zone. Multiple players tried to break up the fight, which sparked separate fights.
Chargers receiver Quentin Johnston was one of the first players to try to break up Palmer and Jones, but Raiders outside linebacker Maxx Crosby grabbed Johnston by his collar and pulled him down, prompting another skirmish.
Eventually, Chargers coaches such as head coach Jim Harbaugh and linebackers coach NaVorro Bowman were on the field to help stop the fight. Bowman waved his hands to energize the crowd afterward.
Palmer said Jones punched him earlier in the game, but no TV cameras or All-22 footage show Jones throwing a punch.
"I mean ... it's on video. I ain't got to really say nothing about it," Jones said Wednesday. "Y'all seen every angle. Every angle's posted all over social media. ... They said I wasn't going to get suspended, so, on to next week. We're on to Baltimore."
Palmer said Sunday that there was no bad blood between him, Jones or the Raiders and that he didn't expect to be fined because he didn't throw a punch.
"I'll fight that battle in NFL court," Palmer said Sunday about a potential fine.
