, a source has told the Associated Press, The NFL plans to change guidelines regarding the way footballs are handled before games.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity on Friday night because details will be discussed at the owners’ meetings in San Francisco next week. The procedural changes result from the Deflategate saga. The league wants to avoid the possibility that teams could tamper with footballs, and any change wouldn’t require a vote from owners.
Tom Brady was suspended for four games and the New England Patriots were fined $1m and docked a pair of draft picks after independent investigator Ted Wells, hired by the NFL, found that the Super Bowl champions used illegally under-inflated balls in the AFC title game. Brady has filed an appeal through the NFL Players Association.
