Buffalo Bills offensive guard Richie Incognito has been fined $50,000 for his misconduct during his final game for the St. Louis Rams, according to ESPN.

Incognito head-butted players against the Tennessee Titans, drawing a pair of unnecessary roughness flags. 

He was benched, got in an argument with coach Steve Spagnuolo and was then placed on waivers.

"Future infractions of the types you have committed may lead to increased disciplinary action up to and including suspension," NFL executive vice president of football operations Ray Anderson wrote in a letter to Incognito.

On Wednesday, Incognito, who was ripped by new Bills teammate Kawika Mitchell, acknowledged that he has earned his reputation for rough tactics.

"I have a reputation around the league for being a less than model citizen," Incognito said. "Some guys on teams really dislike playing against me. So I can see where Kawika's coming from.

"I've probably done some cheap stuff to him in the past, but now we're members of the same team and working towards the same goal, and that's getting this club as many wins as possible. I knew something like that would pop up, but it's not a big deal."
