It looks like another wave of gambling suspensions is incoming

It's a really weird dynamic. The NFL's mentality is just do as I say, but not as I encourage 300 million people to do.

I know literally next to nothing about gambling, but it feels like it should have some of the NIL problems in College Football. It just strikes me as odd that if I were an NFL player, people could bet on me or my team's performance, and I get no licensing cut or anything. And, if I do it, for other teams or maybe even other sports, I get suspended from my job.

I get that the NFL is trying to avoid a Pete Rose situation, but by suspending players, moving a team to Vegas, and so many owners having large stakes in these gambling companies, it feels like they're trying to have their cake and eat it too.
