Texans LB Azeez Al-Shaair fined for writing 'Hind Rajab' on eye black in loss to Bills to honor killed Palestinian girl

Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair has received a financial penalty from the NFL for writing the name Hind Rajab on his eye black during a recent defeat against the Buffalo Bills. The display was intended to pay tribute to a young Palestinian girl who was killed.

This is not the first time the Houston defender has drawn league discipline for his personal messaging. During the previous season, Al-Shaair was similarly punished with a fine after sporting the phrase Stop the Genocide on his eye black.
