The alleged Dez Bryant video is believed to have occurred in 2011 and could leak in the near future.

A report filed by the Lancaster (Texas) Police Department described the response by an officer to "an unknown disturbance" in a Walmart parking lot during the early morning of July 11. Vehicles registered to Bryant were at the scene in the parking lot, and Bryant later arrived in another car, when he was spoken to by a Lancaster PD officer.

Upon further investigation, "it was determined that there was no offense" and "all parties were advised they were free to go."

Officials from the Dallas Cowboys have been aware of this incident for some time.

The suspension of Adrian Peterson has been overturned.

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday that U.S. District Judge David S. Doty has ruled in favor of Peterson, granting an NFL Players Association motion to vacate a previous ruling by Harold Henderson.

"Petition to vacate the arbitration award was granted," Judge Doty remarked, according to Rapoport. "Case was remanded for further proceedings ... as the (collective bargaining agreement) may permit."

The NFL, however, announced Thursday afternoon that Peterson will return to the Commissioner's Exempt List, and the league will appeal the ruling made by Judge Doty to the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Judge David Doty has ruled in favor of Adrian Peterson, granting the NFLPA's motion to vacate the ruling by Harold Henderson.

Peterson will be reinstated.

The union argued NFL commissioner Roger Goodell acted outside his authority in November, when he suspended Peterson until at least April 15 for disciplining his 4-year-old son with a switch in May.

Peterson is scheduled to earn a base salary of $12.75 million in 2015 and count $15.4 million against the Vikings' salary cap.

The existence of a video involving Dez Bryant has been rumored privately for months and publicly in the media for a few days.

Mike Florio reports that the alleged incident happened in the parking lot of a Dallas-area Wal-Mart and the alleged video footage was created by a surveillance camera owned and operated by Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart has no obligation to share the contents of its surveillance videos publicly.

Adam Schefter of ESPN has been investigating the story since September.

Rolando McClain is facing a four-game fine for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy, according to multiple sources.

The fine could affect the type of contract McClain receives even if it will not keep him off the field to start the 2015 season. 

The Cowboys acquired McClain in a trade from the Baltimore Ravens last July and saw him start 12 games and finish second on the team with 81 tackles.

Ray Farmer has apologized for texting Cleveland Browns' staffers during a game.

That type of communication is againt NFL rules.

The league recently interviewed Farmer, who texted at least one coach during a game. The results of the probe could result in a fine, a suspension for Farmer and the loss of at least one draft pick.

"I know I messed up," Farmer said Thursday from the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis. "People understand what the rules are. In my case, I would tell you that it's not an excuse, but sometimes your emotions get the best of you."

Mike Pettine said Wednesday he was disappointed that Farmer sent the text but stressed the two can still work well together.

Kelly Naqi of ESPN.com released a report that conflicts with the report from ESPN’s Chris Mortensen that transformed the question of deflated footballs from a curiosity into a national sensation.

Regarding the halftime inspection of the footballs at halftime of the Colts-Patriots game, Naqi writes: “One source said [NFL executive Mike] Kensil personally checked the PSI (pounds per square inch) levels of all 12 footballs the Patriots had for use on offense and found that 11 of those 12 were underinflated by ‘one to two pounds.'”

Reported Mortensen on January 20: “NFL has found that 11 of the Patriots footballs used in Sunday’s AFC title game were under-inflated by 2 lbs each, per league sources.”

Naqi’s report is more consistent with our report from January 25 regarding Mort’s contention that 11 balls were underinflated by two pounds: “As one league source has explained it to PFT, the football intercepted by Colts linebacker D’Qwell Jackson was roughly two pounds under the 12.5 PSI minimum. The other 10 balls that reportedly were two pounds under may have been, as the source explained it, closer to one pound below 12.5 PSI.”

Meanwhile, the new report from ESPN ignores the confusing Super Bowl Sunday item from NFL Media insisting that some of the balls were just “a few ticks under” the minimum.

Domestic violence charges against Greg Hardy have been dismissed by prosecutors after the accuser in the case couldn't be found.

Hardy's appeal in the case was set to begin Monday. But Mecklenburg County district attorney Andrew Murray told the judge that officials attempted many times to contact the woman, but failed.

Murray said Hardy had reached a civil suit agreement with the woman. Hardy and his attorney left the courthouse and did not answer questions.

Hardy was convicted last summer on assault on a female and communicating threats.

Hardy made $13.1 million last season despite playing in just one game before being placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List.

In the wake of the dropped charges, NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport "(Hardy's) status remains unchanged until we fully review the matter."

D'Qwell Jackson was arrested on Tuesday for simple assault, Washington, D.C. police told Sports Illustrated. Jackson allegedly assaulted a pizza delivery employee over a parking space.

Jackson had 140 combined tackles and 4.0 sacks last season with the Indianapolis Colts.

Jackson could face 180 days in jail if he's convicted.

Josh Gordon has been suspended for the entire 2015 season by the NFL for violating the league's Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport and NFL Media's Albert Breer reported the impending suspension last week, after Gordon had tested positive for alcohol. The suspension begins immediately and is effectively indefinite, as Gordon must apply for reinstatement next February.

"As we have conveyed, we are disappointed to once again be at this point with Josh," general manager Ray Farmer said in a statement released by the team. "Throughout his career we have tried to assist him in getting support like we would with any member of our organization. Unfortunately our efforts have not resonated with him.

"It is evident that Josh needs to make some substantial strides to live up to the positive culture we are trying to build this football team upon. Our hope is that this suspension affords Josh the opportunity to gain some clarity in determining what he wants to accomplish moving forward and if he wants a career in the National Football League. We will have no further comment on Josh as he will not be permitted in our facility for the duration of his suspension."
