New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell got his money’s worth when he decided it was a good idea to pretend to wipe his back end with a football in a game against the Cleveland Browns back in Week 3.
Following the touchdown celebration, the NFL has decided to fine Crowell north of $13,000.
#Jets RB Isaiah Crowell was fined $13,369 for unsportsmanlike conduct a couple weeks ago against the #Browns, stemming from … well … pretending to wipe himself with the football.

The good news? Crowell’s newest endorsement opportunity will help alleviate some of the sting in his back pocket. Yeah, we went there.
In his first season with the Jets, Crowell has put up put up 195 total yards and four touchdowns through as many games. He’s earning $4 million per season. Obviously, a $13,369 fine isn’t going to bite him in the back end moving forward. Very punny, right?
