Pretty soon, Steelers linebacker James Harrison is going to need have a separate checkbook for paying his fines.

Harrison was once again fined for a hit, this one on Buffalo's Ryan Fitzpatrick, according to ESPN.com. The reported fine is the fourth levied on Harrison this season, with the latest coming in the amount of $25,000.

The hit in question came in Pittsburgh's 19-16 overtime win in Buffalo on Sunday in which Harrison was flagged for roughing the passer for this hit on Fitzpatrick.

The $25,000 fine happens to match those given out Houston's Andre Johnson and Tennessee's Cortland Finnegan, for their part in an on-field fist fight Sunday in Houston.
