The player responsible for Odell Beckham Jr.'s bruised quad is now facing repercussions. 

Eagles LB Kamu Grugier-Hill was fined $20,054 by the NFL for his leg-whip hit on Beckham in Week 12, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. 

On the final play of the game, Beckham had the ball lateraled to him but was taken down by Grugier-Hill swinging his leg into Beckham's quad from the ground. 

There was no flag on the play. 

Beckham managed to play the following week against the Bears but was out last week against the Redskins and again this weekend vs. the Titans. 

The Giants are calling the injury a bruised quad while Beckham referred to it as a "hematoma" in a video posted on Facebook on Friday. 

Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that Beckham did not experience any setbacks but was just a "no go" for this week. 

He would not commit to anything beyond Sunday regarding Beckham's status.
