I was under the assumption that Randy Gregory filed for reinstatement on or before March 22. I also thought the NFL had "60" days to rule on any reinstatements.
We're easily beyond the 60 day reinstatement deadline, so can anyone clarify why this is still unresolved?
I am really just hoping under McCarthy we just stop all these 'Animal Rescues' soon.Smith is older and farther removed from playing than Gregory, so he’s more of a risk to be ineffective. But at their primes it isn’t even close. Smith was a generational talent and one of the best players in the NFL. Gregory was potential with a few flashes.
I disagree with everything you said here.I am really just hoping under McCarthy we just stop all these 'Animal Rescues' soon.
We just borrow trouble too often doing it and we are not regarded as heroic doing it.
The fact Big Mike spoke about Smith looking so good after his layoff.
It's all fine and well but I really hope it's just coach speak and not something he does much of DTR.
I do not care for the distractions and I bet the players do not want it.
They just want to play and watch film and get ready to play.
Not answer questions about another player who has repeatedly been suspended or a player like Dak and is his negotiations affecting the team or not.
Give me a break.
Interesting. It is possible.My guess is the league office has provided a response to Gregory and the Cowboys. That response isn’t favorable to Gregory. More time is being taken before he is conditionally reinstated or a flat out denial is officially announced. My gut feeling is he probably failed or missed a test after filing for reinstatement.
No problem.I disagree with everything you said here.
That's not true, the commish has 60 days. Apparently, when we last heard from Randy Gregory's agent about the same time Aldon Smith was reinstated, the comment that was made meant something. Their comment at that time was, "Randy is working through the process". So here we are beyond the 60-day mark and Randy is "working through the process". My interpretation of this is the commish doesn't think Randy has done enough to be reinstated just yet.Roger has as long as he wants. We should know that by know after Zeke.
There is a footnote that says "60 days unless its a Cowboy and Goodell is waiting for Mara to tell him what to do".
I hear that he has petitioned the league to be allowed to smoke on the sidelines, any truth to that?!
They no longer suspend for testing positive for THC. They can fine and impose counseling. Gregory already gets counseling.You can’t rely on someone with Gregory’s issues. I hope he’s doing well personally but the Cowboys should’ve moved on a while ago.
Broadus alluded to Gregory's case being more complicated than Smith's around draft week. That would explain the delay. Maybe not a sure thing like we originally thought.
Seriously doubt Gregory ever steps on to a nfl football field ever again.I was under the assumption that Randy Gregory filed for reinstatement on or before March 22. I also thought the NFL had "60" days to rule on any reinstatements.
