"While Lazard did indeed count the three players he took out with one block, he was roughly four yards away from the closest one. He didn’t get in their faces or hover over them. He was simply celebrating the moment by showing the world that he took out three guys with one block," Mike Florio with ProFootballTalk wrote on Friday.
Lazard will reportedly appeal the fine.
