USA TODAY Sports via Reuters ConnectThe NFL Fined Kyle Juszczyk for his celebration. Kristin Juszczyk, his wife wasn’t having it. The league hit the San Francisco 49ers fullback with a $14,926 fine Thursday for “engaging in offensive demonstrations.” Juszczyk was reportedly fined under Rule 12, Section 3, Article 1 after mimicking a beer chug with just under eight minutes left in the third quarter of San Francisco’s win over the Miami Dolphins.But while the NFL handed down the penalty, Kristin quickly had her husband’s back, taking to social media to push back against the league’s decision.Kristin and Kyle Juszczyk Have the Perfect Response to NFL FineJul 16, 2025; Hollywood, CA, USA; Kristin Juszczyk (left) and Kyle Juszczyk pose on the ESPYs red carpet at the Dolby Theatre. Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn ImagesAfter a long day in the NFL, sometimes you just need a little Juice. And Kyle Juszczyk and his wife, Kristin, took that literally.Shortly after finding out Thursday morning that Kyle had been slapped with a $14,926 fine for his touchdown celebration, the couple decided to make some actual juice. The celebration in question? Kyle’s signature move of pretending to chug a bottle after making a big play, on Instagram.The video opens with Kyle and Kristin standing side by side at home, with the caption “$14,926 glass of juice” front and center. Kyle, better known around the league as “Juice,” has been pulling off the celebration throughout his career. But apparently, his Week 2 version crossed the NFL’s line.

The mishap had the couple cracking up as they put a hilarious spin on what had already been a costly day for the 49ers fullback.That wasn’t Kyle’s only subtle jab at the league, either.Before posting the reel, Juszczyk took to social media to laugh off the $14,926 “beer chugging” fine. He also shared photos of himself, Kristin and their friends recreating the celebration in a variety of situations, turning the penalty into something of an inside joke.And Kyle isn’t letting either fine go down without a fight.Juszczyk has appealed the $14,926 penalty alongside a previous $20,033 Week 1 fine for unnecessary roughness and leading with his helmet against the Los Angeles Rams. According to Juszczyk, both appeals will be heard Tuesday—a hearing he jokingly dubbed a “doubleheader.”Related HeadlinesDak Prescott’s Ex-Fiancee Reacts as Pregnancy Rumors Take Over Social MediaGreen Bay Packers Star Calls Out Fans for Booing Team at Lambeau Field During Ugly LossNFL News: Washington Commanders GM Provides Critical Jayden Daniels Injury UpdateRead more at Sportsnaut
