NFL appeals Deshaun Watson 6-game suspension

UPDATE

As expected, the NFL is appealing the ruling of Judge Sue L. Robinson’s six-game suspension for Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson.

According to ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington, the NFL wants an indefinite suspension of at least one year and a large monetary fine.

I'm told NFL is appealing for an indefinite suspension that would be a minimum of one year. But perhaps more significant given the structure of Watson's contract, source tells me the NFL's appeal will also include a monetary fine. Money is now a significant part of the equation.
