Could Roger Goodell Change Mind in Disciplining Ezekiel Elliott After Pressed Charges?

Earlier this month, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell determined that Ezekiel Elliott shoving a 19-year-old security guard over a metal railing at a concert did not constitute a violation of the league’s personal conduct policy.

Now the guard, college student Kyle Johnson, is shoving back.

Figurately, that is.

As explained below, Johnson’s legal “shove” is one that could put Goodell in an awkward spot.

Johnson, who is from Laguna Hills, California, has decided to press charges against the Dallas Cowboys star running back. On Tuesday, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department confirmed to TMZ Sports that it is now investigating the incident.
