The point is likely moot, Tranny. You're likely right. The Jets will suspend Edwards, the police/courts will do their thing and the NFL will step in once the police/courts have their way. I'd be interested to see what the NFL could do if the Jets refused to suspend Edwards.

The league cannot suspend him it's in the CBA. DUI's fall under substance abuse policy not personal conduct policy. Unless he has a previous violation in the substance abuse program or if this is considered a probation violation only the Jets can suspend him. I hope they "investigate" for a week and then suspend him against Buffalo.
