I don't really follow the NFL anymore, too boring, so I can't say if players are being fined for this or not, but if players are attacking others for their religious beliefs, then they should be fined for that.

Why not? Both cannot be chosen. Race is obviously a bigger thing than height, but people can be discriminated against because of height, though I don't think height is a protected class.
