Source - 49ers' George Kittle fined over $13K for Cowboys T-shirt taunt - ESPN
The NFL has fined San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle $13,659 for use of abusive language on the T-shirt he wore under his uniform against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Kittle wore the shirt under his red No. 85 jersey during the Niners' 42-10 win over the Cowboys. The gray shirt said «F--- Dallas» in blue lettering, and Kittle revealed it while celebrating running back Jordan Mason's 26-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter.
Kittle said Thursday he knew he would probably have to pay for his wardrobe choice.
«Probably to get a fine,» Kittle said. «I wore a personalized T-shirt, maybe an inappropriate word. So it is what it is. It was a decision I made. If they want to fine me, they fine me.»
On Wednesday, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the league was considering a fine for a «personal message» uniform violation. The price tag for such an infraction is $10,927.
