Vikings Williams' Won't Face NFL Suspensions For Now

Lawyers for the NFL say the league won't try to enforce its four-game suspension of Minnesota Vikings DL Kevin Williams and DL Pat Williams for their use of a banned substance for the moment. Attorneys for the Williamses and the NFL appeared Tuesday, June 2, before Hennepin County District Judge Gary Larson as the defensive tackles fight their suspensions. Larson told both sides to file briefs later this month addressing whether his temporary restraining order against the suspensions remains in place and whether he has jurisdiction.

You know what, good. Enforce the suspension for one of the Vikings two games against the Bears.

this story actually turned out to be falsely reported and the truth was that the williamses are allowed to partake in camp and the suspension is set to begin for the start of the regular season

not really. as of now the league still intends to suspend them. if the ruling continues in their favor, they won't be suspended. The NFL can't "punish" them at this point. If the season started todau, they would not be suspended.

good news for now.

Is this the result of using a new attorney?

Did he get this done?
