No Pay For Adrian Peterson For The Rest Of 2014
The NFL suspended Adrian Peterson for the remainder of the 2014 season as of this morning. The NFL Players Association says it will appeal the decision and request a neutral arbitrator.
If the suspension stands, the soonest Peterson would be considered for reinstatement is April 15, 2015. That’s according to a letter Goodell wrote notifying the 2012 NFL MVP of the decision and laying out the basics of a counseling and treatment program, including a mandatory meeting by Dec. 1 with a league-appointed psychiatrist, according to USA Today.
You may recall that Peterson was indicted Sept. 12 on a felony charge for injuring his 4-year-old son while disciplining him with a switch months earlier. He pled no contest on November 4th and avoided jail time.
