A bit of a stunning story here, as Calvin Ridley has been suspended by the NFL for “at least” the entire 2022 season for betting on games during the 2021 season. Ridley took time off last year due to mental health issues and apparently bet on games during November 2021 while he was on the non-football illness list. The league’s announcement says there is no evidence that Ridley used any inside information to help his betting decisions, and the Falcons were unaware of Ridley’s activities.

While two of its member owners bought sports gambling sites and a third moved a team to Las Vegas.
This is sort of like suspending a member of the Vancouver Kushbuds for cannabis…

What other NFL team would have a player take himself off the field and then proceed to bet on his team to win? Did his absence suddenly make the team better?
