Seahawks' Coby Bryant Fined for Celebration

Seattle Seahawks safety Coby Bryant has been fined $6,594 for unsportsmanlike conduct following his tribute to Marshawn Lynch during a pick-six in the Seahawks' 16-6 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Bryant celebrated his 69-yard interception return with a backward dive and a gesture reminiscent of Lynch's iconic 'crotch grab' move, which also led to Lynch being fined in the past. Despite the fine, Bryant's impact on the game was significant, as his play helped secure Seattle's position in a tie for first place in the NFC West. Bryant's performance earned him the NFC Defensive Player of the Week award, highlighting his improvement since transitioning to safety this season. While the Seahawks embraced the celebration on social media, it raised questions about the NFL's consistency in enforcing celebration rules. The league states that fines support various athlete welfare programs.
