That Jets equipment employee ” ‘attempted to use unapproved equipment to
prep the K(icking) Balls prior to’ a game against the Patriots,” the NFL
Players Association noted in its lawsuit filed against the NFL on July 30
regarding New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s four-game suspension
in the Deflategate scandal.
“The NFL concluded the Club employee’s ‘attempt to use unapproved
materials to prep the K(icking) Balls could (have) easily be(en) interpreted
as an attempt to gain a competitive advantage.’ Id. Significantly, the
Jets kicker — unlike the Club employee — was not investigated, let alone
disciplined,” the NFLPA continued in their filing.
So, why might this matter after Brady’s latest settlement hearing?
The Jets kicker in question, Jay Feely — now a member of the NFLPA’s
executive committee — attended Monday’s settlement hearing,
ProFootballTalk pointed out Monday night. It’s unknown whether the Jets
cheating scandal was mentioned when Feely was inside U.S. District Court
Judge Richard Berman’s chambers Monday, but it’s the NFL case most closely
related to Deflategate, and it obviously netted a much different
investigation and result. | m****s 发帖数: 8992 | |
