Arizona Cardinals defensive back Josh Shaw has decided to drop the appeal of his one-year suspension for gambling on league rules, according to the Associated Press.
In late November, the NFL suspended Shaw through at least the end of the 2020 season for betting on NFL games multiple times this season. It marked the first time in nearly four decades that an NFL player was banned for gambling.
Shaw may have violated the league's gambling policy by betting on a three-team parlay that included a game with his team, according to ESPN's David Purdum.
