You do not have to be convicted or even charged of a crime to be able to demonstrate that you've violated a personal conduct policy, and reflect poorly not only on themselves, but all of their teammates, every NFL player in the league, and everyone associated with the NFL.
I think the state of the NFL has a very positive outlook.
It's an awesome responsibility, not only to maintain the level of success the NFL has, but to build on that.
It's not just the NFL. Every other league has a draft. It has been fundamental to the success of professional sports.
It is a privilege for me to serve the NFL. It is the only place I have ever wanted to work.
The NFL clearly is making an investment in this because we believe it's the right thing to do,
The highest standards of conduct must be met by everyone in the NFL because it is a privilege to represent the NFL, not a right.
One of the strong principles that I believe in is that you're always learning, whether you're a commissioner, a current general manager, a president or an owner, or somebody that's trying to become a general manger or a coach in the NFL.
Every game in the NFL is important.
