Why Eagles DB Cooper DeJean was fined $11,593 for Allen Iverson stepover vs. Buccaneers
Cooper DeJean, the Philadelphia Eagles' standout cornerback, faced an $11,593 fine for mimicking Allen Iverson's famous step-over move during a recent game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The NFL deemed this act as 'unsportsmanlike conduct and taunting,' which not only cost him financially but also drew a penalty during the game. This incident highlights the league's strict stance on player conduct, especially when it references iconic moments in sports history, and raises questions about how players express their personalities on the field.
