TORONTO - The CFL has fined Saskatchewan defensive back Tevaughn Campbell for a high hit on Edmonton Elks quarterback Cody Fajardo.
Campbell smashed into a sliding Fajardo early in the fourth quarter of Saskatchewan's 21-18 win over the visiting Elks last week.
Campbell was given a 15-yard roughing-the-passer penalty that survived a challenge by Saskatchewan.
Fajardo finished out the game and threw a pair of touchdown passes in the fourth quarter.
The CFL doesn't disclose the amount of player fines.
Saskatchewan (6-1) visits the Montreal Alouettes (5-2) on Saturday when the Edmonton (1-5) is at home to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (5-2).
