Mike Williams signed a hefty contract with the Detroit Lions as a first-round draft pick last year, but the wide receiver was forced to give some of that money right back......Williams was fined more than $400,000 last year for violating team rules, mostly for arriving late to meetings and being overweight...
...According to terms of the NFL's Collective Bargaining Agreement, the Lions could impose a maximum penalty of $457 per pound per day that Williams was overweight. Also, the team could fine a player $9,300 each time he was late for a meeting...
...Steve Mariucci imposed heavy fines to try to rectify the situation.
It apparently hasn't helped...
