A Muslim football player was penalized during Monday nights nationally-televised game for praying after scoring a touchdown, SB Nation reported.
Officials cited Kansas City Chiefs safety Husain Abdullah for unsportsmanlike conduct for dropping to the ground and kneeling after scoring a touchdown against New England, as seen below:
According to SB Nation, Abdullah practices the traditional Muslim fast during Ramadan, even though it coincides with training camp, and missed the 2012 season so that he could take part in the Hajj to Mecca with his brother Hamza Abdullah, a former NFL player.
However, SB Nation noted that Christian players, like former Denver and New York quarterback Tim Tebow, are never penalized for gestures of worship during games, like Tebows habit of kneeling, which became known as Tebowing.
Now we know why St. Timmeh never cut it in the NFL. He was always backed up to his own 1!
