The NFL has been a hot topic after they instituted new policies regarding COVID-19 and vaccinated players having more freedom than those who aren't. On another note, the NFL has now instituted another policy, this time regarding taunting.

The NFL is apparently going to crack down on taunting, and the “No Fun League” continues to ruin the party. However, there are some things that need to get ironed out as far as who gets penalized.

Here's the video released that helps make clear what is a penalty and what isn't.

Tom Pelissero of NFL Network mentioned the penalties for taunting, and some are outrageous.
