The NFL has fined Arizona Cardinals cornerback Kei’Trel Clark for writing “Glory Be 2 God” on his eye black during a game. Fox News reports the fine is $6,651.
The punishment follows similar discipline elsewhere in the league. Yahoo Sports notes that Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair was fined $11,492 for an unauthorized message written on his eye black, and frames Clark’s case as part of a broader NFL policy restricting messages displayed on uniforms or equipment without approval.
Clark publicly questions the league’s enforcement after being penalized, according to Yahoo Sports, adding to the debate in locker rooms about what qualifies as an approved display and how the NFL applies its rules. The outlets agree on the core facts: Clark receives a monetary fine for an unapproved eye-black message, and the NFL has fined other players for similar conduct.
