The Facts:
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to suspend Roethlisberger on Monday or Tuesday as a result of the recent sexual assault investigation in Milledgeville, Ga., multiple sources have indicated to Yahoo! Sports. Reported by Yahoo! Sports

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Though Roethlisberger wasn't charged in the case and no player has ever been suspended under the league’s personal conduct policy without being at least charged with a crime, sources close to the QB told Yahoo's Jason Cole that Roethlisberger is unlikely to fight the punishment. Citing three sources close to the player, Cole reports that Roethlisberger would prefer to put the matter to rest as quickly as possible. ... Cole added the question remains whether Goodell will keep the suspension to one or two games or make it four games or longer. It is also unknown whether the Steelers will levy an additional penalty upon Roethlisberger or if a punishment will be factored into the league’s suspension. ... Stay tuned.
