Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Aqib Talib, Cincinnati Bengals running back Cedric Benson and Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt are among eight players who the NFL and the NFL Players Association agreed could be suspended under the league’s personal conduct policy for incidents during the NFL lockout according to Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports.
Aside from the aforementioned trio, two sources said that Albert Haynesworth, Clark Haggans, Brandon Underwood, Johnny Jollyand Adam “Pacman” Jones are the other players involved in the agreement, as specified in a letter from NFL attorney Jeff Pash to NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith. At least four of those players were unaware the NFLPA agreed to the provision on their behalf.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello declined to discuss the matter and NFLPA spokesman George Atallah wrote in an e-mail, “I don’t believe any of those players received any discipline, correct?” Atallah did not answer when pressed about whether the NFLPA agreed to the eight.
