Mel Kiper brought up that Penning is looking at a rookie year full of penalties due to his intense play.

 

blah, Kiper.  Is Penning holding or playing after the whistle?  If not, perhaps he's embarrassing vets and they are taking exception to it?

Richie was early in his career. Including his first spell here. He got smarter in terms of penalties as he got older.

 

Precisely this.

If he doesn't learn from getting kicked out of practice repeatedly, then I suspect Mel is onto something.  Savvy vets know how to use a Rookies unfocused/uncontrolled energy/enthusiasm to goad them into penalties. Don't expect the rook to get he benefit of the doubt from the refs when the post whistle shoving breaks out.
