NFL punishes Patriots player for two key plays that helped New England lose to Dolphins in Week 5

Keion White's frustration was evident as the New England Patriots struggled in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins.

The defensive end committed two penalties last Sunday, both of which took place in the third quarter on the same drive. White was flagged for a an unnecessary roughness call after a horse-collar tackle, and a roughing the passer call (blow to the head/neck).

The fines are $9,836.00 each, reaching a total of $19,672.

A to Z Sports spoke with White earlier this week before the fines were handed out about these two penalties that handed the Dolphins 30 yards.

"I'm going to still be aggressive regardless," White said. "You get penalties in football. I don't really stress it."

White is known as a player who leaves it all out on the field. He doesn't say much, but he doesn't have to. He speaks through his play style.

"That's just the mentality of my style of play that I choose to have," White explained about his mindset to be aggressive. "I feel like everybody's quick to criticize when the aggressiveness get a penalty, but really like it when the aggressiveness makes big plays.

"So you got to take the bad with the good. I really don't care, to be honest. I'm just going to keep doing that."
