According to ESPN, Gay was fined for wearing these purple cleats, which do not match the Steelers back and yellow uniforms.
Gay wore purple to raise awareness for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, for which he is a vocal advocate. Gay has been personally affected by domestic violence as his mother was killed by his stepfather when he was 7.
