Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III has been handed a £6,500 fine by the NFL for an apparel violation.
RG III was given the fine following the pre-season game against the Pittsburgh Steelers because he wore an unauthorised T-shirt in the warm-up.
The player was seen wearing a shirt with the words "Operation Patience", in reference to the waiting game that the Skins have used to get him back to fitness.
Griffin, a rookie last year, was injured in the post-season but is expected to return for the opening game in 2013.
