The Facts: The NFL and NFLPA have agreed to adjust the existing gambling policy as it relates to players, which will immediately reinstate a couple of suspended players. The league is reinstating Williams and Titans offensive lineman Nicholas Petit-Frere, effective Monday, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported.
Diehards Line:
Williams and Petit-Frere still had two weeks left on their existing suspensions prior to Friday's policy changes. The adjustments include heightened penalties for players who bet on NFL games -- including the possibility of a lifetime ban -- and a reduction of penalties for players who place bets on other sports while in the workplace or while working.
