The NFL now holds Deshaun Watson's football future in its hands.
saying it's"reviewing" the decision and"will make a determination on next steps."
As one source said Monday, the league could choose to focus on the determination that the behavior was, according to Robinson,"more egregious than any before reviewed by NFL." The league could determine if that warrants a longer suspension than a standard single domestic violence penalty of six games.
If the NFL chooses to accept Robinson's ruling, Watson will sit out the first six games of the regular season and then rejoin the Browns on Monday, Oct. 17. However, if the league decides to overturn the suspension, it must mount that appeal based on evidence that was already submitted to Robinson.
Ultimately, if the NFL chooses to make such an appeal, it would be taking the position that commissioner Goodell or his chosen designee is a more"correct" arbiter of justice than Robinson —who reviewed arguments and exhibits in the case for a full month before issuing her decision this week.
