Abstract
- The article discusses the National Football League's (N.F.L.) personal conduct policy for disciplining players, noting the league's inconsistent approach to domestic abuse cases involving players between 2007 and 2014. Topics addressed include a lack of severe punishment for players involved in domestic abuse despite N.F.L. commissioner Roger Goodell's implementation of a more strict personal conduct policy in 2007, as well as cases involving players such as Ray Rice, Brandon Marshall, and Michael Boley.
