Antonio Brown will wear custom cleats Sunday to honor Jose Fernandez and Kimbo Slice before the Steelers play the Dolphins. The Pittsburgh wide receiver, who hails from Miami, decided to honor the two men who were considered icons within the South Florida community.

Because Brown could face a big fine for wearing the cleats during the game against the Dolphins, he will likely just wear them during warmups.
Brown also paid tribute to Arnold Palmer and Muhammad Ali with original cleats this season.
Fernandez, 24, died in a boating accident in September. Slice, 42, died of heart failure in June.
