Starting to wonder if the NFL has a bit of an epidemic on its hands...

Sure starting to look like it. Heh! They better get this season started or there won't be any players left.

Sad commentary on the current state of the NFL.

The league may want to start supplying mandatory drivers for these guys. These kids just aren't getting it. With so much of this starting to show up, the NFL could be in hot water for not seeing a pattern.

The league may want to start supplying mandatory drivers for these guys. These kids just aren't getting it. With so much of this starting to show up, the NFL could be in hot water for not seeing a pattern.

The NFL has seen a pattern and has sent memos to teams telling them this:

"There have been several negative law enforcement incidents in recent months involving both players and non-player employees. These incidents primarily have involved alcohol or drug-related offenses, specifically driving while impaired. Clearly, operating a vehicle under the influence of any substance poses a significant risk of injury to the driver and others. These risks are underscored by well-known tragedies within the NFL family.

"The Personal Conduct Policy makes clear that we must all conduct ourselves in a manner that is 'responsible, that promotes the values upon which the league is based, and is lawful.' Every negative incident undermines the respect we have earned from our fans, erodes the confidence of our business partners and threatens the continued success of the league.... As your club concludes its mini-camp, it is essential that you take time to reinforce this message with your staff and players."

As far as drivers, you can't force the issue, but the NFL does have a program:

Goodell reminded team officials and players that they had access to a league-sponsored program that provides driver services 24 hours a day for $85 (including tip).
