The NFL was criticized in August for suspending the Giants kicker Josh Brown one game for spousal abuse and at the same time doling out a harsh 10-game suspension for the Eagles' Lane Johnson for ingesting a banned peptide.
Just released documents shed light on just how badly the NFL's Roger Goodell might have punted in his suspension of Brown - even though he upheld the harsh suspension for Johnson that's currently underway.
The league’s own baseline for domestic violence is a six-game suspension for the first offense. Johnson's suspension was recently upheld for violating the league’s substance abuse policy, even though he claimed the banned peptides weren’t on the label of the product he took.
