Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco has joined Chicago Bears rookie Caleb Williams in challenging the NFL's cleat restrictions, according to a report published Saturday.

The league's uniform policy limits the designs and messages players can display on their footwear during games. Williams, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 draft, has been vocal about the restrictions.

Flacco, a 17-year veteran, indicated he would cover any resulting fines, reportedly stating he would pay penalties for non-compliance.
