NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has laid the smack down on Pacman Jones and Chris Henry. Both were suspended for mulitple breaches of the NFL's personal conduct policy, Henry for 8 games and Jones for the season. That's right, the entire season. Both are suspended without pay. For Jones, that's $1.3 million he won't be making this year. Ouch. An excerpt from Goodell's letter to each of the players:
"Your conduct has brought embarrassment and ridicule upon yourself, your club, and the NFL, and has damaged the reputation of players throughout the league. You have put in jeopardy an otherwise promising NFL career, and have risked both your own safety and the safety of others through your off-field actions. In each of these respects, you have engaged in conduct detrimental to the NFL and failed to live up to the standards expected of NFL players. Taken as a whole, this conduct warrants significant sanction."
In other news, Joey Harrington is now a Falcon. He will compete for the #2 QB spot in Atlanta.
