re: NFL could eject Lynch for wearing gold cleats

Teams are required to wear uniforms in game. A uniform is defined as not varying or changing : staying the same at all times, in all places, or for all parts or members

Nike paid the NFL over a billion dollars to provide the players uniforms and outfit. coaches on game days. Lynch doesn't and shouldn't have a choice in the matter as that money is filtered to him and the rest of the players according the the CBA. He is an employee of the league, no different than anyone else and should act accordingly.
