The NFL has fined Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper $300,000 for tossing a drink at fans in Jacksonville toward the end of a game on Sunday.

The league called TepperB次元官网网址檚 conduct B次元官网网址渦nacceptableB次元官网网址� in a statement released Tuesday.

B次元官网网址淎ll NFL personnel are expected to conduct themselves at all times in ways that respect our fans and favorably reflect on their team and the NFL,B次元官网网址� the statement said.

TepperB次元官网网址檚 reaction came after rookie quarterback Bryce Young threw an interception with less than three minutes to play in a 26-0 loss to the Jaguars.

B次元官网网址淚 am deeply passionate about this team and regret my behavior on Sunday,B次元官网网址� Tepper said in a statement. B次元官网网址淚 should have let NFL stadium security handle any issues that arose. I respect the NFLB次元官网网址檚 code of conduct and accept the LeagueB次元官网网址檚 discipline for my behavior.B次元官网网址�

It wasnB次元官网网址檛 clear whether Tepper was reacting to something said to him or another loss for the NFLB次元官网网址檚 worst team. The Panthers are 2-14 and wonB次元官网网址檛 even have the No. 1 overall pick in the draft because it was traded to Chicago for the top pick used to select Young.

Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer was standing near Tepper when he tossed whatever remained of his drink while watching the game from a club suite.

In 2009, the NFL fined the late Titans owner Bud Adams $250,000 for making an obscene gesture at Buffalo fans while celebrating TennesseeB次元官网网址檚 victory over the Bills.

Fans have been banned from stadiums for throwing drinks at players.

ItB次元官网网址檚 been a rough year for Tepper, who fired first-year coach Frank Reich after just 11 games. Since Tepper bought the Panthers less than six years ago, he has gone through coaches Ron Rivera, Matt Rhule and Reich, plus interim coaches Perry Fewell, Steve Wilks and Chris Tabor.
