Goodell: Roethlisberger violated the NFL’s personal-conduct policy

Today commish Roger Goodell had some not so nice words when it comes to Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger. Talking on Dan Patrick’s show today, Goodell said that Ben has a “pattern of behavior” and “bad judgments. Now the team simply waits for a decision on how long the QB will be suspended for.

“The issue here is with respect to a pattern of behavior and bad judgments,” Goodell said. “You do not have to be convicted or even charged with a crime to be able to demonstrate that you’ve violated a personal-conduct policy, and reflect poorly not only on themselves, but all of their teammates, every NFL player in the league, and everyone associated with the NFL. That is what my concern is, and I have expressed that directly to Ben, obviously, and I’ll be making a decision as soon as I possibly can.”

Reports from Yahoo Sports’ Jason Cole yesterday said that the decision on Roethlisberger would come out on Tuesday.
