Buffalo Bills WR Stefon Diggs Fined For 'Stone Cold' TD Celebration

In this story:
Those who call the NFL the "No Fun League" got some more ammo with the latest round of fines on Sunday.
During the Buffalo Bills' Week 4 win over the Miami Dolphins, receiver Stefon Diggs went to the crowd to celebrate his first of three touchdowns in a dominant performance. To celebrate his score, Diggs grabbed a pair of beers and smashed them together in a showing inspired by wrestling superstar Stone Cold Steve Austin.
After the game, Diggs maintained a fun-loving attitude about the celebration, joking with reporters that "I owe someone like $18." Well, he now owes the NFL a lot more than that as the league fined him $13,659 for unsportsmanlike conduct, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Diggs has had quite a few eccentric touchdown celebrations throughout his career. After last year's season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, Diggs was fined over $10,000 for taunting cornerback Jalen Ramsey after a long touchdown. He also got into a verbal spar with New England Patriots fans in 2021, although he avoided a fine this time.
Diggs wasn't the only Bill fined as a pair of defensive tackles received discipline as well. DaQuan Jones was fined $16,391 for a hit on Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in the middle of the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, Ed Oliver received two separate fines of $13,659 each, a total of $27,318, for unsportsmanlike conduct, both taking place late in the third quarter.

After a dominant win over their division rivals, Diggs and the Bills will look to keep their three-game winning streak going when they face the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday morning in London, while hopefully avoiding any further fines.
