It’s Tuesday night, and Adam Schefter of NFL Network points out that the league office has not yet suspended either Patriots left tackle Matt Light or Dolphins linebacker Channning Crowder for their Sunday fisticuffs, during which Light grabbed Crowder by the hair and pummeled his helmetless pineapple.

Here’s the video.

 

Both players were ejected, and at a minimum stiff fines are anticipated.  But, as Schefter explains, suspensions for the upcoming games would likely be announced early in the week, before preparations commence in earnest for the next round of games.

This also might be short-term good news for the StarCaps Six, who had their appeal hearings last week and who have yet to be bounced for four games.  (Then again, judgment day might come next week in the StarCaps cases; if as reported the league wants to get the suspensions served before the end of the regular season, they need to start by December 7.)

For Light and Crowder, fines could still come at any moment.
