Antonio Brown to honor Kimbo Slice and Jose Fernandez (Photo)

Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown continues his run of a custom cleats in a return trip to Miami.

Miami native and Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown is continuing to pay homage to fallen sports heroes with his collection of custom football cleats. The tribute began at the start of the football season as he honored legendary boxer, Muhammad Ali.

After being chastised by the NFL, Brown didn’t stop his tribute as he later designed custom cleats with all of his children’s faces on it, and a pair that featured well-known golfer Arnold Palmer, who passed away just a few weeks ago.

The latest pair of cleats which will likely land him in the principal’s office is a pair that features Jose Hernandez and Kimbo Slice. Both Fernandez and Slice have ties to Miami. Fernandez played for the Miami Marlins and Kimbo was from Margate, Florida, where he gained fame by demolishing foes in street fights in the Miami area.

For Brown, the continuing gesture is classy. Although he continues to get disciplined because of it, he remains true to honoring those who had a huge impact on sports and popular culture.

Since this is a repeat act for Brown, the NFL will not take his constant rebellious ways lightly. As we know, the NFL has a recent history with Brown as he was fined multiple times thus far this season. From twerking to wearing custom cleats, it’s likely that some form of discipline will come of his latest acknowledgment of sports heroes that are no longer here.

It’s a shame that Brown can’t continue his tribute without backlash, and it further proves that the N.F.L. also stands for the No Fun League.
