New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is likely facing a fine from the NFL for wearing Christmas-themed cleats on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons.

Kamara wore red cleats, which he isn't allowed to do considering players can only wear team-colored tweets, and he's expecting the fine from the league.

According to 247Sports, Kamara said he already has a plan for his fine.
"I'm going to make a GoFundMe — yeah, I'm getting fined — and whatever the fine is, I'm going to pay the fine and the rest I'm going to donate to a charity. Simple as that," he said.

Kamara on wearing the cleats: "Yeah it was worth it. We were just talking about the NFL not being a Grinch. We need them to just leave us alone."

It doesn't sound like the fine is going to faze Kamara, and it's awesome that he's going to donate money to charity.
Kamara might be the favorite to win NFL Rookie of the Year. He has 684 rushing yards and 742 yards receiving, and he also has 12 total touchdowns. The Saints are 11-4 and will be in the playoffs, and the combination of Kamara and Mark Ingram have been a big reason why this year.
