The NFL’s sense of discipline this year has been puzzling, but they got this one right.
According to NBC, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin will reportedly be fined $11,025 by the league for his crass end zone celebration at the Super Bowl.
Baldwin caught a touchdown pass from Russell Wilson and for an unexplained reason, mimicked the appearance of dropping his pants and taking a dump on the football.
“No,” Baldwin said to the Everett Herald. “I was just out there having fun playing the game of football. There’s no explanation. You play this game for so long, you go out there and you have fun. I can get criticized for it, that’s fine, everybody has their opinion, but in the moment I was just having fun. My teammates know that.”
