The Bills got some good news today as NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell told the team that the league is not going to punish running back Marshawn Lynch for his part in a hit-and-run incident that left a woman hurt. The big factor in the decision according to Goodell is that Lynch plead guilty to a traffic violation, which in rule is not a violation of the NFL’s personal conduct policy. “I think the facts are clear on the case at this point in time, and I don’t plan any discipline,” Goodell said during a visit to Bills training camp. “He understands that responsibility.” As part of the plea agreement, Lynch admitted speeding off in his Porsche Cayenne SUV after striking a female pedestrian near Buffalo’s downtown bar district on May 31st.
