During his appeal he will remain on the exempt list and continue to get paid. Wonder how long the appeal will take. Because the NFL policy is for 6 games with extenuating circumstances justifying longer. If the NFL really wanted to make a statement, they could call for 6 games or more starting after completion of the appeal. Even if that only takes a week. That would mean Peterson could be suspended for part of next season without pay. Not that I think the league would actually hold him out next season. I'm pretty sure they are just going to keep him away for the remainder of this season and hope that before next year the pressure on them blows over some.
