wyndycty Jokers Wild Reged: 08/09/07 Posts: 104296 Loc: Austin via Chicago by way of Pittsburgh The NFL rescinded Kyle Juszczyk’s $14,926 fine because the league determined he was mimicking drinking a juice box, not an alcoholic beverage….. 10/08/26 05:49 AM Edit Reply Quote The Original Penalty: The NFL fined Juszczyk on September 23, 2026, for "engaging in offensive demonstrations" during a Week 2 game against the Miami Dolphins, claiming he performed an imitation of chugging a beer. The Appeal Argument: Juszczyk appealed the fine by explaining that the gesture references his nickname, "Juice," and that he has performed the routine for years without issue. The Hypocrisy Point: Juszczyk also noted that penalizing a player for mimicking a drink was hypocritical given the NFL's heavy corporate sponsorships with beer brands like Bud Light. Policy Change: Following the appeal, the NFL and the NFLPA issued a joint statement clarifying that player celebrations imitating a beverage will no longer result in fines, provided they do not violate rules against violent or gang-related gestures.
