The article I saw lead with Isaiah Rodgers (Colts kick returner/backup CB) "and others".

 

Presumably he's the biggest name on the list. 

 

Yeah, media ***** Schefter wouldn't lead with anything other than the highest profile player involved...

Anyone know how it works with regard to the cap?

Ie if White or Miller was suspended for the year, does his salary comes off the books and frees up enough money to sign Hopkins???

It would as the contract would be pushed pack a season.  It would create about 24 to 25 million in cap space.  Of course that would be less than ideal given their age and the cap hit we'd take the next couple of seasons.

I agree with Pat Kirwan from MTC.  An easy fix.  Suspended for life or at least 5 years.  That will nix it.

 

these guys are morons.  Their avg shelf life is 3.5 years and they get suspended for a year.  Make it 5 and no one will break the rules.  They can gamble as idiots their life away once they retire and be on some sad show how they pushed ot away.

 

i make a very nice living and I don’t gamble because you lose more than you win.  A fool and money.  The old phrase.

That seems a little harsh but maybe one year for non NFL games and three seasons for any NFL game.

 

The NFLPA has given Goodell free reign on the gambling policy so if I were him I'd ban gambling on anything while employed by the NFL (player, coach, administrators, water boys, etc.).  That would clear up any confusion.  Like I said, one season for non NFL gambling and three seasons for NFL gambling.
