Mike Pouncey Served Subpoena Exiting Dolphins' Locker Room

Sep 15, 2014 11:47 PM

Mike Pouncey was served a subpoena as he exited the Miami Dolphins' locker room following their 27-17 loss to the New England Patriots.

The subpoena is related to an investigation into Aaron Hernandez, who is a close friend and college roommate of Pouncey.

Sports Illustrated claims sources indicated that Pouncey's subpoena has to do with an investigation centering on Hernandez's potential involvement in interstate gun trafficking, not the pending murder trial.

Union Believes Schiano Provided Freeman's Personal Info To Media

Dec 14, 2014 1:00 AM

The NFL Player's Association believes Greg Schiano is responsible for leaking personal information about Josh Freeman to the media.

“The union says it has no confidence in the NFL's separate investigation, in part because the union is unaware of any previous league investigation into a confidentiality breach that has yielded discipline,” writes USA Today.

This portion of the story begins when ESPN reported that Freeman was in the first stage of the league's drug policy. 

Schiano has denied being responsible for releasing Freeman's private information.

"I know what I've done," said Schiano. "I'm 100 percent comfortable with my behavior."
