Sheila Says: A Patriotic Titan

Titans linebacker Avery Williamson wore patriotic cleats Sunday to recognize the 15th anniversary of  the 9-11 attacks. He was expected to be fined by the NFL for not complying with their dress code and many, including Titans head coach Mike Mularkey, were willing to pay the fine for him, but it looks like the league is going to make a very rare exception and not impose the fine. Williamson plans to auction off the shoes with a meet and greet, two VIP tickets to a Titans game and a signed jersey. The proceeds will benefit Operation Warrior Wishes, a nonprofit that provides NFL game day experiences to wounded veterans.
