The NFL fined Roddy White and four other Atlanta Falcons players for violating uniform regulations with tributes to Michael Vick during the team’s loss to the New Orleans Saints on December 10, 2007.
Cornerbacks DeAngelo Hall and Chris Houston, wide receiver Roddy White and tight end Alge Crumpler each were fined $10,000. Wide receiver Joe Horn was fined $7,500.
Crumpler, Hall and Houston wore black eye strips with the message “MV-7,” Vick’s initials and uniform number, which the league called “displaying an unauthorized personal message.”
After scoring a touchdown, White pulled up his jersey, with help from Horn, to unveil a “Free Mike Vick” T-shirt.
Here is video of the Atlanta Falcons players showing support for Michael Vick.
