Goodell took full accountability and vowed change in the league — at least that is what he was trying to convince everyone of — and one of those steps was to institute a new and completely overhauled conduct policy.
While Goodell wouldn’t go into details about anything during the press conference, he did say that he would like to have the conduct policy in place by the Super Bowl and he would like for the new policy to be as “clear and transparent” as possible.
The NFL commissioner also promised to put together “Conduct Committee” to review new rules and ensure best practices.
We will have to wait and see exactly what Goodell comes up to and whether or not it will be a difference, but he is promising change that should make a positive impact.
The pressure is on now.
As for whether or not Goodell would ever resign, don’t plan on seeing that anytime soon.
“I have not. I’m focused on doing my job,” Goodell said.
