What happened: The NFL levied the financial penalties against Waddle and Quinn Meinerz for what it deemed "illegal celebrations and vulgar acts." The disciplinary action drew criticism from local media as an excessive response to a harmless pantomime.

Why it matters: The discipline stems from a conversion play involving Bo Nix and Waddle. The league penalized the players for the gambling-themed sequence.

What to watch: The Broncos prepare for a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
