History

Historical Context

After a 2007 investigation uncovered over 60 dogs at quarterback Michael Vick’s Virginia property, a federal grand jury indicted him on July 17 and Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended him, later sentencing Vick to 23 months in prison. Goodell’s tightened personal-conduct policy now guides the league’s response, prompting the New York Jets to weigh possible suspension or fine for quarterback Geno Smith amid Instagram assault rumors.
