The Cincinnati Bengals were not happy about the potential coin-flip situation they were faced with ahead of their Week 18 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, yet they still managed to make the best of it.
Fortunately, they have avoided that route by beating the Ravens and even performed a cool celebration during the game, basically sticking the finger to the NFL.
Former star wide receiver Chad Johnson had suggested that one of the Bengals players should perform a coin-flip celebration against Baltimore and Joe Mixon did not let him down, actually withdrawing a coin from his sock after scoring.
The league is not very fond of getting trolled and has since hit Mixon with a fine of $13,261, which is a ridiculous amount to pay after already being short a coin.
Mixon, though, also made light of the fine and took to Twitter to make a deal with Roger Goodell.

In any case, the running back might not be the one who pays that fine as Johnson has offered to cover it.
Meanwhile, there’s still reason for the Bengals to be upset as they will have to play the divisional round away from home if they beat Baltimore in the Wild Card round, and if the Buffalo Bills win their own matchup.
