Commissioner
Goodell signed a five-year extension with the NFL worth a reported $200 million in December, and he’s been earning his keep by guiding the league through a series of controversies, including ongoing concerns about traumatic brain injuries. Facing complaints about declining TV

Team owners approved the rule, but the NFLPA objected, so the season went forward with no kneeling policy.
