| Roger Goodell Will Hear Saints 'Bounty' Appeals June 18 NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will hear the appeals of the four players suspended in the New Orleans Saints "bounty" scandal on June 18, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. This will be the first meeting between Goodell and the players since he suspended them for their roles in the bounty program. It also will engage Goodell and Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma, who has sued the commissioner for defamation. Vilma was suspended for the entire 2012 season for his role in the bounty scheme, which offered cash rewards to defensive players who injured opponents. Saints defensive end Will Smith was suspended for four games, former Saints linebacker Scott Fujita, now a Cleveland Brown, was suspended three games and defensive lineman Anthony Hargrove, now a Green Bay Packer, received an eight-game ban.
