NFL fans are crying foul over the league fining a Philadelphia Eagles star for his celebration during the Super Bowl.

After getting his crowning moment, 23-year-old linebacker Jalyx Hunt was slapped with a $5,690 fine for how he celebrated a sack on Patrick Mahomes.

As the Eagles held the Chiefs to a scoreless first half, Hunt helped sack the three-time Super Bowl MVP in the second period. Upon getting up, Hunt celebrated by gesturing a bow and arrow pointed skyward, which his teammate Moro Ojomo shadowed.

On Saturday, Tom Pelissero reported that the NFL was fining Hunt, despite no flag being thrown on the field during the celebration.

‘NFL is communistic,’ a user claimed in the comment section. ‘There is no free speech, no free expression. You have to bow their wants.’

‘Just a completely unnecessary fine. Especially considering the Chiefs stadium is called Arrowhead,’ a second added.

‘Lord have mercy,’ a third chimed in. ‘Who is in charge of this sнιт? Its basically robbery of the players.’

‘I’m a chiefs fan, but this is getting silly,’ wrote a fourth. ‘Violent gesture? Yep. Need to be worried about kids firing their actual arrows up in the air like this these days.’

A fifth user posted a Google search showing Chiefs star Travis Kelce portraying the archer gesture on multiple occasions.

‘They’re just BIG MAD because the results of that game wasn’t what they expected/wanted,’ a sixth added, suggesting the NFL favored the Chiefs to win.

Hunt tallied a solo and an ᴀssisted tackle for the Eagles as they spoiled Kansas City’s fairytale three-peat ending with a 40-22 victory.

Philadelphia held Kelce to four receptions out of six targets and a paltry 39 yards. They also sacked Mahomes six times in the defensive masterpiece.
