There has been a lot of talk about NFL cleats this season, specifically Kanye West's Adidas Yeezy cleats which have been "banned" by the NFL because they violate the league's uniform policy. Adidas brand athletes aren't the only players that are being told to switch up their spikes though.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown confirmed on a local radio show that refs told him to change his blue and yellow Nike cleats at halftime during their game against the Eagles this past weekend.

Typically, the league will fine players for wearing cleats that don't conform with their rules, but having a ref force a guy to change his cleats? That's next level No Fun League stuff. Of course, AB will likely be fined as well sometime this week.
