NFLPA Statement on Appeals of Discipline Ruling

NFL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION STATEMENT ON RULING FOR APPEALS OF DISCIPLINE

We believe that when a fair due process takes place, a fair outcome is the result.

We are pleased that Paul Tagliabue, as the appointed hearings officer, agreed with the NFL Players Association that previously issued discipline was inappropriate in the matter of the alleged New Orleans Saints bounty program.

Vacating all discipline affirms the players’ unwavering position that all allegations the League made about their alleged “intent-to-injure” were utterly and completely false.

We are happy for our members.
