Vince Young is unlikely to be suspended for his role in a Dallas strip club brawl.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will meet with Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young in the next few weeks to talk about Young’s recent assault citation in Dallas.
Unlike Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Young is unlikely to face suspension as he his a first-time legal offender according to Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com.
“I think you have to look at these cases individually and understand them in a way of what are the issues going on with any individual,” Goodell said Sunday at the 2010 NFL Rookie Symposium. “The intent of the (personal conduct) policy is to intervene so you help some individuals make a better decision and avoid these troubles. So when I sit down and look at all the facts around Vince or any other player, you want to make sure they understand that and what the policy was designed to do and more importantly understand the responsibility (of being an NFL player).”
Young got into a fight at a Dallas area strip club on June 13 after he was provoked by another man who was insulting Young’s alma mater — the University of Texas.
Dallas police issued Young a Class C assault citation for his actions.
