Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown told reporters today that he was fined nearly $60,000 for four celebrations in which he mimicked smoking in last week\u2019s game against the Bills.<\/p>\n
St. Brown said each of his four celebrations came with a fine of more than $14,000.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not good, man,\u201d St. Brown said, via the Detroit Free Press. \u201cFourteen-something times four<\/a>. You do the math. But I\u2019m appealing.\u201d<\/p>\n The NFL classifies inappropriate celebrations as unsportsmanlike conduct, and the standard fine is $14,926. Four of those fines would total $59,704.<\/p>\n The league appears to have cracked down especially hard on celebrations this week. 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk was fined for what the league said was miming chugging a beer<\/a> but Juszczyk says was miming drinking a glass of juice, which is his nickname. Colts guard Matt Goncalves was fined for the same thing.<\/a> Bengals receivers Ja\u2019Marr Chase and Tee Higgins were both fined for a celebration that was deemed to be obscene<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown told reporters today that he was fined nearly $60,000 for four celebrations…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":859828,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-859827","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=859827"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859827\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/859828"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=859827"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=859827"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=859827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
