Former NFL safety Erik Coleman told 'Fox & Friends' that players' betting on league games is a 'stain on the game' following the NFL's announcement of four suspensions on Thursday.
In a June 5th social media post, Rodgers admitted to an"error in judgment."
"Addressing the current reports, I want to take full responsibility for my actions," Rodgers wrote."I know I have made mistakes and I am willing to do whatever it takes to repair the situation. The last thing I ever wanted to do was to be a distraction to the Colts organization, my coaches, and my teammates. I’ve let people down that I care about.
Isaiah Rodgers, #34 of the Indianapolis Colts, warms up against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on December 4, 2022, in Arlington, Texas."I think the NFL made a great step in getting the message out by laying down these hard suspensions to suspend these guys indefinitely," Coleman said."A lot of these, you’ll never see them play again."
"I think ultimately, the NFL has to come down harder on all these players," he continued."They have to re-educate all the current players and let them know this is not allowed, this is not a part of our game." Coleman played nine years in the NFL, spending the first four years of his career with the New York Jets before playing for the Atlanta Falcons and the Detroit Lions.
