The NFL and NFLPA announced in a joint statement Wednesday that recent player celebrations imitating drinking a beverage will no longer be violations or result in discipline.
In Week 2, multiple players, including 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk, Colts guard Matt Goncalves and Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson, were fined after performing celebrations in which they mimicked drinking a beverage of some kind.
An appeals officer rescinded the fines for Juszczyk and Ferguson earlier Wednesday as the league and players’ association worked out a solution to solve any future issues on the matter
“The league-wide guidance provides players with greater clarity on how they can celebrate while remaining within the rules,” the statement said
