This has rubbed some players across the league the wrong way – especially Washington Redskins’ safety Ryan Clark according to CBS Sports. Clark spoke on how he isn’t happy about the way this is being handled by Roger Goodell. Owners of any team should always lead by example. I doubt Irsay will be banned from the league like Donald Sterling will be from the National Basketball Association – but a hefty fine could follow.
It’s also noted that police found several prescription drugs in pill bottles on top of $29 thousand in cash according to ABC 6 News.
What do you think Roger Goodell should do to Jim Irsay as a punishment for his actions?
