The NFL said Sunday that the Seattle Seahawks were not fined for failing to comply with league ownership requirements to sell the team, contrary to a report of a $5 million penalty in the Wall Street Journal.
'As we told the WSJ yesterday on the record, the team was not fined,' NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told Pro Football Talk on Sunday.
