This league is pathetic. The funny thing is the violent gesture was done like two more times by the ref for flagging it and then shown on social media for being stupid. Literally put it on blast lol.
69? Nice
HE’S POINTING….MENACINGLY!
The NFL has done more to end finger gun violence than the US government has done to end actual gun violence.
I think he would have been ok until he cocked the thumbs.
Dumb penalty and fine but moving forward just return the ball and get to the next play. Jets will always be a target of penalties so mine as well not poke the bear
This is giving real “8 year old suspended for biting pop tart into the shape of a gun during snack time” vibes. Good job, NFL.
the ref reenacted it right after… yet it’s so bad. how does that make sense?
One of the most egregious calls I’ve ever seen
Hope Vea gets the same treatment
Fucking ridiculous
Rich for a league that has numerous guys racking up actual felonies every season. But let’s call back a huge play for a guy going pew pew. Clowns.
Finger guns are more violent than sexual assault and domestic violence in this league. Such bullshit.
WHAT IF THEY WENT OFF!?!?
s/ what a f’in joke
Makes sense to me. When’s the last time you saw Shooter McGavin play in the PGA, 1996? I think they went easy on Lazard thankfully!
Can you still do a bow and arrow gesture and not get fined?
ViOLeNt lol
Nothing says cool more than a fine, celebrating a play, in a game that ended a 10-9 loss.
Meanwhile vita vea army crawled after he sacked cousins and did some rifle shot thing and got no call. Absolutely fuckin pathetic. This league has zero consistency

That call was so fucking pathetic and so is this fine.
Pew pew..only the jets get the flag on that…after weeks of way more egregious gun celebrations
This league is cooked
It was the second pump
I get the lsu super senior guy getting fined for doing the “your dead next” gesture to someone else, but if kyle pitts can “open the loot with your gattling gun” to the football after a td, then finger shots to a goalpost should be fine.
I guess concealed carry laws also apply to finger guns in the NFL.
I love that the Ringer Fantasy Football show pointed out that the Patriots fire muskets and the Buccaneers fire canons after touchdowns but Lazard got fined for finger guns
Multiple teams shoot off guns/canons when their teams score. Like actual canons, not finger guns…so braindead
How does Drake London do a celebration imitating a machine gun and only get a unsportsmanlike penalty but Lazard does fucking finger guns and gets fined 14k? Where is the logic?
We have to ban assault fingers. It’s time.
Fined him for this but Nabers can act like he’s shooting an AR into the crowd without penalty or fine…..
