They didn't limit it to the next game. Per the WP:

Portis Conforms

After running back Clinton Portis racked up $20,000 in fines for uniform violations last week, the league warned him before this game about future infractions.

Portis was told if he wore different socks from his teammates or deviated from the uniform code in any way, he would be ejected, league sources said, and he complied.

We don't have to belabor whether or not they would have actually ejected him. It was a tongue-in-cheek post, but I wanted to followup to clarify. And then to clarify again. And then again.
