After a string of suspensions earlier this year, the NFL is making significant changes to its gambling policies.
The league increased penalties for players gambling on NFL games on Friday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Now, players who place wagers on NFL games will be automatically suspended for one year. If a player bets on his own team, they will be suspended for two years. Any game fixing for gambling purposes will lead to banishment.
While those penalties have been increased, the league reduced penalties for players who bet on non-NFL games at work. The first violation of non-NFL gambling will lead to a two-game suspension. The second violation will result in a six-game suspension, and a third will lead to a one-year suspension.
