KDKA-TV reported last night that the National Football League was selling photos on NFL.com of James Harrison's illegal hit on Browns receiver Mohamed Massaquoi.
On Tuesday, Harrison was fined $75,000 for the hit as the league all of a sudden has an interest in policing illegal hits.
The illegal hits though didn't stop the league from making some profit just days after. The photos of Harrison were reportedly on sale ranging from $15.00 to upwards of $200.00.
After being exposed last night, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello released a statement this morning.
"We regret the mistake. The photos have been taken down and we will ensure that no photos of illegal plays will be available again. An outside vendor uses an automated process to post photos for sale to fans. We will fix the process immediately"
