Report: Saints' Bunkley fined $20,000 for kick

The NFL has fined New Orleans Saints defensive tackle Brodrick Bunkley $20,000 for kicking San Francisco 49ers guard Alex Boone in the head last Sunday.

Bunkley was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct and ejected in the final minutes of the Saints' loss to the 49ers, prompting the NFL to levy the fine, CBSSports.com reported. Boone was on the ground when Bunkley kicked him in the back of the helmet.

Bunkley played in Thursday night's loss to the Atlanta Falcons and had one tackle.
