The Minnesota Vikings gave it their all during the eventual 30-24 loss. However, from the latest report, one of the star players will be receiving a significant reduction to their paycheck for a roughly 3-second gesture. Minnesota Vikings Star Fined According to reports, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson has been fined $14,000 for making a gun gesture at the camera during his touchdown celebration against the Detroit Lions. The exact amount according to Tom Pelissero is $13,659, but either way, whether rounded up or not that is a good chunk for something that would easily be forgotten about the…

The Buffalo Bills safety has had an incredible journey back to the field. From needing to be resuscitated, his return to play is unlike a story that is typically expected from someone who is in the running for the Comeback Player of the Year Award (CPOY).

For the Denver Broncos, economics, and salary cap hit aside, why would head coach Sean Payton look to move on from Russel Wilson? Sure there were some bumpy roads toward the beginning of the season, but the team looked to be on the right track, and still had an outside chance to make the playoffs. While some may point to the latest loss against the New England Patriots to be the final straw, there have been warning signs throughout the year that Coach Payton was not happy. Denver Broncos Match Not Made In Heaven It appeared that Coach Payton tried…

The Cleveland Browns are coming off of one of the better storied wins of the year after their victory against the Houston Texans. The reigning AFC Offensive Player of the Week is coming off of a 265 yard receiving performance, along with two touchdowns.
