Judge Richard Berman’s ruling eliminated New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s four-game suspension, and Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy is more readily exploring his options.
According to ESPN’s Ed Werder, Hardy—who is suspended for four games for his role in a domestic violence incident—will discuss with the player’s union about whether or not to appeal his case in federal court.
