The NFL has rules against players wearing “personal messages.” This headband breaks that rule of personal messages. So it wasn’t a Christian target. Other players have been fined for messages such as “Find A Cure” and even “In Memory Of …”

A Second Offensive would make the fine over $14,000.

Davis is known for his strong faith sharing and he will not let the NFL stop him from sharing it.

Update October 9, 2019: Demario Davis won his appeal on the uniform violation. He will not have to pay the fine!
