Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has yet to discipline any of his own players for disrespecting the national anthem.

The network announced Monday that Hill has been suspended for two weeks for a second violation of its social media guidelines.
Hill “previously acknowledged letting her colleagues and company down with an impulsive tweet,” ESPN said in a statement. “In the aftermath, all employees were reminded of how individual tweets may reflect negatively on ESPN and that such actions would have consequences.
