That's because Payton has to be reinstated at the end of the year pending on how he acts this year.


It's my understanding SP's suspension is for one year (NFL football year). SP can rejoin the Saint's at 12 midnight the day after the 2014 Super Bowl. But that does not mean SP can act like a jackass (according to Goodell) and violate the terms of this suspension. I expect SP to generally lay low and if he is cornered by the media he'll speak the NFL line to make Goodell happy. But that does not mean Goodell would change the terms of the suspension on a whim.

On the other hand, GW has been suspended indefinitely. Which basically means to me that Goodell will reinstate GW when ever he wishes. Probably after GW kisses Goodell's ring.

The suspension is for one year, but Payton still has to be reinstated after it. So coming out to the media and campaigning against Goodell probably isn't a good idea.

when it’s time for NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to decide if Payton will be reinstated once his one-year suspension is up.
