The NFL has a problem with domestic violence

The NFL has a problem with domestic violence

In February, Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice punched his then-fiancee, knocking her out cold. Video caught him dragging her unconscious body out of an elevator at a casino hotel. On July 24, the National Football League (NFL) announced an appallingly short suspension for violating its personal conduct policy: Ray Rice will miss just two games.

That's a shorter suspension that the NFL issues for drug use, draft violations, or any number of other offenses listed in this graphic we produced with our friends at CREDO Action. Can you take a second to share and spread the word? NFL Commissioner Goodell has the sole authority, and opportunity, to change the league's policy and finally send the message that the NFL does not condone domestic violence.
