Regardless ridiculous behavior on Donald’s part. Haha. Dude re-enacts the Last Boy Scout scene in practice. Nfl is like we can’t do anything about that. Up to the team haha. the nfl discipline policy is a joke 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Water Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) 14 minutes ago, Warcodered said: That is true fights in general would generally get you punished, still no suspension for that fight Josh started, the helmet makes it interesting though. What should happen is that the team should fine/suspend Donald for trying to bash his teammates brains out. What will probably happen is he'll get called into McVay's office for a Good Stern Talking To, he'll say "sorry!" to his teammates, they might assess a minor fine against him, and that's that. Now....if he'd actually injured someone, he could get the Bill Romanowski treatment. For those who don't remember, in 2003, Romanowski went berserk and punched a teammate, tight end Marcus Williams - fracturing his eye socket and ending his football career. Williams sued for $3.4M and was awarded $340,000 for lost wages and medical expenses (total of $415k) - whoop whoop. Meanwhile, the Raiders kept Romanowski on the team, gave him a stern talking-to, and fined him $60,000 Romanowski later admitted he was using Victor Conte's "The Clear" and "The Cream" as well as HGH.

Einstein Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) This doesnt say the NFL can't. It just says clubs are typically responsible. 2 minutes ago, Beck Water said: What should happen is that the team should fine/suspend Donald for trying to bash his teammates brains out.

Airseven Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Hopefully no suspension. Don't want any big names missing that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Tom Pelissero-NFLN Clubs -- not the NFL -- are responsible for overseeing conduct of players at practice, including joint practices. So fair to say league discipline for Aaron Donald (or anyone else) in today's brouhaha is unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) The NFL nor the Rams have the balls to suspend him for the opening game. I personally don't care if he isn't suspended for the opening game but definitely think they should at least fine him.

They probably wont though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is left to the discretion of the teams Warren Sharp is not running up a good track record with his pre-season takes here. If the NFL regulates player behavior at a strip club.. I think a joint practice is likely fair game. I don't think he gets anything for this though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he gets anything for this though. There are a lot of posters confusing "clubs regulate player behavior at practice" with "the NFL can't do anything". Which is absolute nonsense. The NFL can absolutely do whatever it wants. You think if a player grabbed a female water-carriers buttocks at practice, the NFL wouldn't get involved? HA! They would be involved so fast the players head would spin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen isn't intimidated by Arnold but maybe Allen's in Arnold's head a bit after getting stiff armed to the turf by Allen. He's not used to be on the receiving end of player meet turf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
