NFL Players That BROKE THE RULES

now despite NFL players being under constant light buddy took it upon themselves to break rules for reasons that you won't believe now Willow des Beckham jr. training year after year in the NFL making unbelievable catches and constantly being surrounded by trade rumors YouTube broke the rules multiple times 40 years ago and I felt players didn't have anything other than the equipment given to them to make the plays that were needed to win games but over the last decade sticky gloves and other helpful equipment to become more popular in players who were just trying to put themselves ahead of the pack one of the most notable cases of sticky gloves goes back to 2014 and November 2014 Auto Beckham jr. and the Giants took on the Cowboys and MetLife Stadium when Eli Manning threw a deep fade route toed out that was a bit long and looked uncatchable old I reach back with one hand and he was able to bring the ball and with only two fingers we're seen nearly impossible at first a lot of people started to praise Odell for his catching ability but haters decided to give a sticky gloves all the credit according to the MIT sports lab the grippy polymer used on the new generation of gloves said to be developed first by Canadian wide receiver and chemist in a Pakistan laboratory in 1999 is about 20% stickier than a human hand Eagles cornerback rizal Douglas spoke about a dust catch and the sticky gloves in general when he said the gloves definitely helped them with the one-handed catches you rarely see guys make a one-handed catches without gloves on I'm Rich McKay who's the chairman of the nmos competition committee even spoke about sticky gloves saying there's no long term statistical data that I've seen but they definitely make some difference there's no doubt about that and many other cases of sticky gloves have been showcased over the years and it started to make its way all the way to college when just a year after the Odell catch Penn State wide receiver JaJuan Johnson cotton insane one-handed catch on an Ohio State defender the catch was cool at first but it sparked controversy about sticky gloves and whether he would have caught the ball if he didn't have them on or not steam it at the time Hakeem Nicks had a lot to say about the glove saying you grip the ball better no question you don't even need to think about catching it I definitely got a huge advantage for receivers you see all these one-handed catches and guys snagging balls you say wow that's almost impossible it slows the spin of the ball I feel like if there's a ball anywhere near me and I can just get a hand on it I feel pretty confident I'm gonna catch it whether it's the gloves or hand-eye coordination if I don't have gloves on I might not be able to grab with just one hand my slip out but this wasn't the only time the Nodell win against the rules shortly after being traded from the Giants to the Cleveland Browns Odell started in his career first game as a brown and early September this year against the Titans and although the Browns lost the big takeaway from the game was Adele who seemed to walk in and warm us wearing a watch nobody knew what kind of watch it was but they also didn't think he'd wear it during the game which he did becoming the first NFL player to wear a watch during a game the watch that Odell had on was up $350,000 Richard Mille which remains the most expensive piece of equipment ever worn in the game the bright orange watch was the RM 1103 automatic winding flyback chronograph McLaren first introduced in 2018 and created in the limited-edition of just 500 pieces and since sports like tennis volleyball and golf aren't contact sports Richard Mille does sign on brand ambassadors for people who wear their timepieces during games and although adele isn't an ambassador maybe he was trying to be but according to the NFL Beckham is a violation of a League rule about wearing hard accessories during play and Hall of Famer Warren Sapp commented on Odell's watch after his seven catches your touchdown performance and opening day and said you can't wait at $350,000 watch I play like a $2 bill and O'Dell I've been taking a lot of heat came out and said if anybody else would have worn the watch if it was a $20 watch would have been no problem today this is something else if it wasn't the watch would have been the way I tie my shoes after taking a lot of heat and possibly a fine for wearing a watch a week one O'Dell came out a week two against the Jets in this return to MetLife Stadium where I can get again another expensive Richard Mille Odo's watches one who many people have never laid their eyes on with Richard Milly's website saying only ten of these specific models were ever made and they retail for two million dollars many watch experts were talking about the watch on social media and when Eva said rm50 602 Tour bill and Sapphire case had to be milled and ground from solid pieces of sapphire and any mistakes can result in the piece cracking it takes 960 hours from one case and now they're almost 1,500 hours of sapphire machining and one wide but that would have been content if something happened to his watch in the first game but since the specific model was so rare and hard to get well don't laugh this one in the locker room before coming out for game time with the Chargers staying out of controversy for most of their time as an organization back in 2012 is a different story the charges were caught doing something they shouldn't on October 15 2012 the charges faced the Broncos in the week 15 matchup and everything seemed normal until after the game an NFL official was notified that the charges weren't surrounding the taos to the officials which they and every other team was directed to do after finally getting the towels and doing a further investigation and if I realize the charges were using stick them on their towels which is AB animal substance that could be spread into anything in order to make things stick to it better the charges were caught using stick them on their towels which are used by the players to help with the stick them on their gloves the NFL released a statement is said as a result of the failure of club staff to follow the directive of a game official to immediately surrender the towels room directed to do so and to attempt to conceal the towels the charges have been fined $20,000 the charges went on to appeal the ruling and even released a statement of their own saying our staff member was unaware the game official was trying to get his attention he cooperated fully once it became aware the appeal was short-lived and the charges faced the $20,000 penalty as well as having to fight a staff member who hid the towels with the Antonio Brown ball from arguably the best receiver on the field to jobless and beg me for another chance in the league he too broke the NFL's rules multiple times late 2018 the NFL made the decision to change the style of helmets used in order to protect players from the popular topic of concussions as soon as Dantonio heard the news he began contacting NFL officials and the Raiders saying he'll be using his old helmet and he won't take no for an answer and tell me those reasons for not wanting to wear the helmet was because he said his vision was blocked after figuring out that every other NFL player followed the rules of the helmet change and Tony I went out and trying to find a certain helmet that fit regulations Antonio even tweeted saying I'm looking for a shut air advantage adult large helmet it was manufactured in 2007 after exchange I'll try to sign practice more and radio some and this whole ordeal as well as Antonio's comments and attitude toward the Raiders got him released not too long after the Patriots picked him up the controversy didn't stop there for a be right after beginning the play for New England but I'm gonna get some basic protocol part of NFL players obligation as an athlete is to talk to reporters and media about certain topics relating to the sports after games players are allowed to denied questions about personal matters but the only main role is that you have to at least address sports related questions Brown of the Patriots torch the Dolphins 43 to 0 during week two after the game everyone was expecting to address Antonio about his performance but he was nowhere to be found the NFL released a statement explaining why Antonio broke the rules once again when they said players must be available to the media following every game and regularly during the practice week as required under league rules and their contracts isn't that permissible for any player or group of players to boycott the media with the Patriots constantly dominating the league year after year they're still under constant spotlight some feel they shouldn't even be respected and years passed plenty of scandals have surfaced around their team September 10th 2007 New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick was accused by the New York Jets of authorizing his staff to film the Jets defensive singles from an on-field location this was a violation of the National Football League's rules and NFL security confiscated the video camera used by video assistant mass Strela to film the signals during the game Jesslyn coach Eric Mangini had reported the fact that the Patriots were taping from a silence to the NFL security a mankini later said I don't think there's any kind of significant advantage but I was gonna give them the convenience of doing it in our Stadium and I wanted to shut it down but there was no intent to get the league involved there was no intent to have the landslide that has become two days later Belichick issued a statement to apologize to everyone who's been affected and also stated that he spoke with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell about the situation in a September 2006 statement so now by NFL vice president of football operations Ray Anderson said all teams were told that videotaping of any type included but not limiting to taping enough bonus offense or defensive signals it's prohibited on the sidelines and the coaches booth in the locker room or any other location accessible to club staff members during the game on September 13th village AK was officially fined $500,000 for the incident to make sure that no other teams took a chance like this again this was the largest fine ever imposed on a coach in the league's 87 year history and the maximum permitted under league rules the Patriots themselves were also fined $250,000 and they were stripped of their first-round draft pick selection in the 2008 NFL Draft Goodell said he find the pages as a team because bill a check is effectively the team's general manager as well as the head coach and exercises so much control over the Patriots on field operations that his actions and decisions are properly attributed to the club the Patriots officially clinched their fifth straight AFC East Division title on November 25th making them the first NFL team since the 1970 one Miami Dolphins to have the first round pick taken away by League action and with the Patriots already being looked at heavily due to recent allegations this wasn't the only controversy they'd been a part of what was eventually called deflate gate let a huge headline surrounding New England that many didn't take lightly the situation came during the 2014 playoffs in the AFC Championship game during the first half of that championship game Patriots quarterback Tom Brady threw an interception to coast linebacker to quell Jackson Jackson handed the ball to the Colts equipment manager for safekeeping and as a souvenir early reports suggested that Jackson was the first to suspect the ball was deflated but Jackson said that he didn't notice anything wrong with the ball when he caught it Jackson says he actually didn't even know the ball was taken or that's a controversy existed until he was being driven home from his team's charter plane after the Colts had arrived in Indianapolis the official rules the NFL require footballs to be inflated to a gauge pressure between 12.5 and 13.5 pounds per square inch but the rules don't specify the temperature which the measurements to be made prior to 2006 NFL rules were for the home team to provide all the games footballs in 2006 the rules were altered so that each team uses own footballs while on offense the team's rarely handle a football used by another team except for after recovering a fumble or interception and Brady along with Peyton Manning argued for the rules to change for the express purpose of letting quarterback to use footballs that suited them but to call Jackson talked about the situation happening that game and he said I wouldn't know how that could even be an advantage or disadvantage I definitely wouldn't be able to tell if one ball less pressure than another but after Jaxx's interception the team notified NFL gameday operations that they understood there was a problem with the inflation level of the Patriots football and a halftime NFL officials inspected the football and former NFL referee Gerry Austin and correctly stated that 11 of the 12 balls used by the paid were measured to be two pounds per square inch below the minimum amount the lady reports said that only one single ball was two pounds per square inch below the minimum well all those were just a few ticks under the minimum they were subsequently revealed that an NFL official cleat blakeman's measurement said that five of the 11 balls measured below 11 pounds a coach Bill Belichick went on to speak about the allegations saying when I came in Monday morning I was shocked to hear about the news report about the footballs I had no knowledge of the situation until Monday morning I think we all know that quarterbacks kickers specialists they'll have certain preferences or footballs they know a lot more than I do they're a lot more sensitive to it than I am I give them comment on it from time to time but I can tell you and they'll tell you there's never any sympathy whatsoever from me on that subject Tom's personal preference on his footballs or something that he could talk about much better detail and information that I could possibly provide Tom Brady's credibility took a dip and he eventually received a four-game suspension despite appealing the rule Brady even released a statement saying I'm very disappointed by the NFL's decision to uphold a four-game suspension against me I did nothing wrong and no one in the Patriots organization did either despite submitting two hours of testimony over the last six months is disappointing that the Commissioner upheld my suspension based upon a standard that it was probable that I was generally aware of misconduct the fact is that neither I nor any equipment person did anything of which we've been accused I also disagree yesterday's narrative surrounding my cellphone I replaced my broken samsung phone with the new iphone 6 after my attorneys made it clear to the NFL that my actual phone advice would not be subject to investigation under any circumstance as a member of a union I was under no obligation to set a new precedent going forward nor as I made aware any time during mr. wells investigation that that billing that subjected my cell phone no investigation would result in any discipline but despite this happening it hasn't held back Tom Brady at all and he's gone on to win multiple Super Bowls since he's only used this as motivation to prove to everyone why you can't take his label the greatest of all time away they yelled on I know we talking about breaking rules but I'm gonna break your pinkie if you don't look in this video on the screen I'm dead serious right now bro I'll pull up right now straight up and snap the pinky in half that's what I do dawg I didn't choose the thug life it shows me now what are you gonna do you probably gonna click on this B on the screen yeah that's what I thought please just click on it please
