An article in The Washington Post interviews UB sports law expert Nellie Drew about plans by the NFL to appeal the U.S. District Court ruling overturning the four-game suspension of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady over “Deflategate.” “If you lose this, Roger Goodell’s credibility to serve as chief disciplinary officer on player appeals has really been damaged,” she said. She also was quoted in articles that appeared in news outlets that include the Boston Globe, New York Daily News, WBFO-FM and Time Warner Cable News.
