NFL: Connected Influential Owners Don`t Want Tom Brady`s Suspension Reduced

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell might be stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to Tom Brady. If Goodell doesn't reduce Brady's four-game Deflategate suspension, the quarterback's legal team and the NFLPA will likely take the NFL to court to get the suspension trimmed down to zero games.

On the other hand, if Goodell does reduce the four-game suspension, he could be in hot water with several NFL owners who don't want to see Brady's suspension reduced. That's right, several owners want Brady's suspension to stick.

According to ProFootballTalk, a "small handful of influential owners" want to see Brady's suspension stay at four games.
