[Kansas City.com] Chiefs safety Kendrick Lewis, a rookie from Mississippi, was fined $5,000 this week by the NFL for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Cleveland tight end Evan Moore, lAFC information manager Corry Rush confirmed to The Star on Friday.

The Chiefs were penalized 15 yards in last week’s game against the Browns after Lewis was flagged for his hit on Moore, which Cleveland coach Eric Mangini said resulted in a concussion.

Rush said the league determined that Lewis’ hit was unnecessary roughness on a defenseless receiver.
