Preseason fine won't count toward suspension threshold in 2025.

Chiefs tight end fined $4,972 in Week 2 of the preseason for a blindside block; the new three-strike suspension system doesn't commence until the 2026 regular season, so preseason fines won't carry into regular-season games that count, meaning Briningstool will not be on strike two when the regular season begins and remains three violations away from a one-game suspension.
