The CFL has fined three players for incidents that occurred during Week 19.

B.C. Lions’ defensive lineman Sione Teuhema was fined for a high hit on Saskatchewan Roughriders’ quarterback Trevor Harris. Teuhema wasn’t initially penalized on the play, which took place early in the fourth quarter, but Saskatchewan head coach Corey Mace successfully challenged for roughing the passer.

The Riders won the game by a score of 39-8 to secure second place in the West Division. Harris threw for 271 yards and two touchdowns in the matchup, while Teuhema recorded two defensive tackles.
