While it’s taken a while for a decision to be made it now appears Adrian Peterson will not play in the NFL this season at all, as he has now been suspended for the rest of the year. He will not be considered for reinstatement until April 15, 2015.
The punishment stems from child abuse accusations, with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell finding Peterson in violation of the league’s personal conduct policy.
“The timing of your potential reinstatement will be based on the results of the counseling and treatment program set forth in this decision,” said Goodell in a letter to Peterson informing him of the decision. He continued, “Under this two-step approach, the precise length of the suspension will depend on your actions. We are prepared to put in place a program that can help you to succeed, but no program can succeed without your genuine and continuing engagement. You must commit yourself to your counseling and rehabilitative effort, properly care for your children, and have no further violations of law or league policy.”
Peterson has three days to file an appeal, and reportedly plans to do so ASAP.
