The NFL Players Association wants the NFL, its management council and Commissioner Roger Goodell held in contempt of court over the league's refusal to have an arbitrator issue a new ruling on Adrian Peterson's since-lifted suspension, as ordered months ago by a federal judge.

On Feb. 26, Judge David S. Doty granted the NFLPA's motion to vacate the arbitration award that upheld Peterson's suspension and sent the case back to appeals officer Harold Henderson for further proceedings consistent with Doty's order.

In a motion filed Tuesday, the union claims league counsel has continued to tell Henderson not to act until its appeal of Doty's ruling is heard by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, which on Tuesday granted the NFL's motion for an extension in filing its latest reply brief.

Goodell is the new Teflon Don. They just won't renew his contract in 2018.
