Marshawn Lynch is the latest player to get busted by the NFL’s uniform police.

Lynch, the Seahawks’ running back, was fined $5,250 for the green shoes he wore in Sunday’s game against the Texans.

NFL players are required to wear the same color shoes as their teammates. If they choose not to, it will cost them. Lynch knows that, as he’s been fined for the wrong color shoes before.

This probably won’t be the last time Lynch draws such a fine. He seems to like choosing his own shoe color enough that it’s worth a few thousand bucks to him.
