All Suspensions Vacated For New Orleans Saints Players In Bountygate

The NFL is saying Paul Tagliabue vacates all discipline against players in New Orleans Saints bounties case.

According to usatoday.com:

“This means the suspensions Goodell imposed on Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith, Anthony Hargrove and Scott Fujita have been wiped off the board for now.”

 

“Unlike Saints’ broad organizational misconduct, player appeals involve sharply focused issues of alleged individual player misconduct in several different aspects … My affirmation of Commissioner Goodell’s findings could certainly justify the issuance of fines. However, this entire case has been contaminated by the coaches and others in the Saints’ organization,” Aiello quoted Tagliabue via Twitter.
