Caleb Williams Wears Cleats With No Visible Logos After NFL Fines

Caleb Williams, the NFL quarterback, changed his cleat choice for the Bears’ game against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night due to previous fines. He had been fined twice by the NFL for displaying unauthorized logos on his shoes during two games, totaling nearly $36,000. Williams opted for cleats from Caddix, a brand that offers logos that are difficult to notice.

This decision came after Jack Rasmussen, the founder of Caddix, expressed his disagreement with the NFL's fines but acknowledged that covering or removing the logos might be a practical solution to prevent further penalties. The NFL's rules restrict players from wearing footwear with unapproved logos, with Adidas, Nike, Under Armour, and a limited number of players allowed to wear Air Jordan-branded cleats.

Williams has also appealed one of his fines and has a hearing scheduled for November 10. Rasmussen mentioned that there are two Caddix models currently in circulation, with one having a more subtle logo option.
