A lower court ruled that the NFL's contract with DirecTV may limit competition in violation of federal law. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote that in rejecting the NFL's appeal at this early stage of the lawsuit, the high court was not necessarily endorsing the claims. If the defendants do not prevail at summary judgment or at trial, they may raise those legal arguments again” in a new appeal to the Supreme Court, Kavanaugh wrote.

(CNN) NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Friday the league should have listened to players earlier about racism concerns in a response to NFL players calling on the league to condemn racism and support its black players. "We the National Football League, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black people," Goodell said. "We, the National Football League, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest," Goodell said. "Without black players there would be no National Football League," Goodell said. We, the National Football League, admit wrong in silencing our players from peacefully protesting.

The former Nimitz High School standout signed with the Houston Texans back in April after spending last season with the New York Giants. In his short time being officially back in Houston, Thomas didn't waste any time reaching out to his community. "I just want to say congratulations to all the 2020 seniors who are graduating from high school," Thomas said during the video. No, this is not the vision you had as freshmen with nerves and scared of what high school would be like. "I always have love for Aldine," Thomas said.
