OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) -The NFL has fined Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis for a helmet-to-helmet hit delivered to Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco. The play came in the fourth quarter of Baltimore's 17-14 loss on Sunday. Lewis hit Ochocinco after a pass from Carson Palmer sailed incomplete, and the 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness helped set up the winning touchdown with 22 seconds remaining. Asked Wednesday if he expected to be fined, Lewis replied, ``Probably.'' The amount of the fine was not disclosed.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
