    Brandon Jacobs is again in trouble with the NFL for an encounter with fans. Sources with knowledge of the situation tell NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora that the New York Giants running back has been fined $20,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct toward fans, his second such violation this year. After the conclusion of pregame warm-ups prior to New York's Week 11 showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles, Jacobs was observed by an NFL security representative making obscene gestures and yelling obscenities toward fans in the stands at Lincoln Financial Field. In a letter to Jacobs, NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations Ray Anderson said the conduct was "unprofessional and unbecoming as an NFL player" and noted that "repeated violations will result in increased disciplinary action, which may include suspension for conduct detrimental to the league."
