Last month, the NFL fined Denver Broncos inside linebacker Josey Jewell $13,659 for unsportsmanlike conduct against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8. His offense: celebrating a sack with finger guns.
Jewell is nicknamed “The Outlaw,” so he celebrates big plays by pretending to fire pistols into the air. The league initially held a stance that “any act resembling shooting a gun” would result in a fine.
