Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick is being fined $22,050 for unnecessary roughness, a league source told ESPN's Ed Werder.
The fine stems from Kirkpatrick hitting Arizona Cardinals punt returner Ted Ginn Jr. in the head-neck area during the Bengals' 19-13 victory Sunday.
Kirkpatrick, the Bengals' first-round draft pick in 2012, has played in 19 career games with three interceptions and one sack.
