Derek Carr Fined for Michael Jackson Dance

News summary

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr has been fined $14,000 by the NFL for performing a Michael Jackson-inspired touchdown celebration that included a crotch grab, which the league deemed sexually suggestive. The celebration occurred during the Saints' 44-19 victory over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2. Carr was not penalized during the game, but the league's rules on unsportsmanlike conduct led to the hefty fine. Carr explained that the dance was a promise to his family, showcasing a side of his personality not widely known. Despite the fine, Carr's performance has been stellar, leading the Saints to a 2-0 start with the highest quarterback rating in the league.
