When wide receiver George Pickens caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Dak Prescott with 52 seconds left in the fourth quarter on Sunday, it appeared the Dallas Cowboys had just beaten the New York Giants.

The touchdown put the Cowboys in front 34-30, but a touchdown and a field goal remained to be scored in the fourth quarter before Dallas took a 40-37 lead in overtime.

The former Hoover High School star’s first touchdown for the Cowboys cost him $28,892 this week. Although no flag was thrown on the play, the NFL gave Pickens two fines of $14,491 for unsportsmanlike conduct for his touchdown celebration – one for a violent gesture and another for removal of the helmet.

Dallas wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who was part of Pickens’ touchdown choreography, also got fined $14,491
