Kyle Juszczyk Gets Fined for Chugging Celebration that NFL Says Was Be
- The NFL fined San Francisco Niners fullback Kyle Juszczyk $14,926 on Thursday for engaging in an "offensive demonstration" during Sunday's 35-13 victory against the Miami Dolphins.
- Juszczyk, nicknamed "Juice," has performed his signature chugging celebration for years as an ode to his nickname, though the league deemed the imitation of chugging beer to be in "poor taste."
- The NFL's fine notice stated the celebration violated league standards of sportsmanship and warned that future offenses could result in escalation, including potential suspension.
- Juszczyk has already filed an appeal, telling ESPN's Adam Schefter, "And I don't even drink beer," and later writing that he "can't make this stuff up."
- This is the 6th fine for Juszczyk in three seasons, following previous penalties for illegal use of the helmet during the NFC Wild Card Round and other games.
