Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb Sounds Off On Being Fined By The NFL For Untucked Jersey

Cowboys CeeDee Lamb has been fined almost $50,000 this season by the NFL for various violations.

Lamb notably has been fined over $20,000 on two separate infractions of having his jersey untucked during games. The first came on Sept. 27 against the Eagles and the second came on Oct. 3 against the Cowboys. Lamb, like everyone else, has had it with the NFL's rules.

"Like, I don't know what I need to do, honestly," Lamb said on Wednesday. "I just know for sure I'm more conscious of it. ... Post-tackle or anything, I guess I got to look down, pull my jersey down. Stuff like that. It's weird. It's very weird, considering the next time I get caught with my jersey untucked, I heard I get fined like $50,000 or something. That's weird."

Lamb said he's been wearing his jersey the same as he did during his rookie season, when he was never fined. Lamb will be fined $46,350 if he violates the rule a third time.

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, meanwhile, was fined $14,650 for violating the NFL's COVID-19 protocols. That's left Lamb confused.

"Annoy me? Nah. Confuse me a lot? Very much so yes," Lamb said. "I just don't understand why I'm always the one getting fined for some reason. Untucked jersey. I don't know."

Lamb went on to say that Vikings safety Harrison Smith should have gotten fined for choking him on the sideline during their Week 8 matchup.

"Yes, considering I got fined, what was that for, waving?" Lamb said. "Then for me to get choked on the sideline and the ref said his thumb was stuck in my helmet ... that's nonsense. ... I know what it feel like to be choked. I was being choked."
