Jalyx Hunt, a rookie linebacker for the Eagles, received a fine of $5,690 from the NFL for his unsportsmanlike celebration after a sack of Patrick Mahomes during Super Bowl LIX. Rather than having fans pay his fine, Hunt suggested donating to Barbers Who Care Inc..
“Mannn 😂🤦🏿♂️ I appreciate y’all reaching out about paying the fine, but if you all are serious about it let’s make a deal… I’ll pay the fine and y’all send the money to a great cause I learned about from my barber in Philly ⬇️ Go Birdssss!! 🦅” — Jalyx Hunt (@jalyx_hunt).
The fine represents less than 3.5% of Hunt’s earnings from the Super Bowl victory, where Eagles players received a bonus of $171,000. His sack occurred during a pivotal moment in the game, followed by a pick-six by teammate Cooper DeJean, significantly extending the Eagles’ lead.
