The nfl is not going to do anything about camp fights unless someone seriously hurts someone
If they suspended players for camp fights there would be players from almost every team suspended
Camp fights have been going on since they wore leather helmets

I think they should let the teams and coaches decide. Possibly fines is about the only thing they can do. Can't suspend them for games. That would not be right, unless it is something truly blatant.

If the NFL office gets involved, and then the players union, it could get very bad.
How do you fine a player, like the 90th guy in TC, that gets only TC pay, as their contracts don't take effect until they make the roster and play in games.
