Carr Fined by the NFL

The No Fun League fined Derek Carr $14,000, which amounts to 20% of his weekly salary, for his Michael Jackson dance moves. For additional hypocrisy, read the article.

Actually it's only a tad over 1% percent of his adjusted (restructured) annual income of $1.21 million. It was really only .037% of his average salary.

But, yes, pretty silly but at least it all goes to Carr's charity of choice.

From the article:
But it cost Carr $14,000. The NFL has found a way to have their cake and eat it, too. Because Carr restructured his contract this offseason to play on a veteran minimum salary in exchange for receiving a hefty signing bonus, he’s only getting $71,176 in weekly game checks during the season. So about a fifth of his Week 2 paycheck is going to cover this fine.

Put that way it seems more substantial.

I wonder what charity he's donating it to?
