IK Enemkpali punch under review by NFL
Joe WebbNine days ago, former Jets linebacker IK Enemkpali broke the jaw of Jets quarterback Geno Smith. The Jets cut him, but Enemkpali quickly found another home, claimed on waivers by the Bills.
Since then, the NFL has done nothing to Enemkpali, despite the clear violation of the Personal Conduct Policy, which expressly covers workplace violence.
Some have suggested that the NFL’s hands are tied because Enemkpali already has been punished by the Jets, preventing a second punishment from the league. In 2013, former Dolphins guard Richie Incognito apparently avoided an NFL-mandated suspension because he already had been suspended by the team after the Jonathan Martin incident.
