Roger Goodell on Robert Kraft: ‘Personal Conduct Policy Applies to Everybody'

On Tuesday night, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell commented on Robert Kraft's alleged solicitation of prostitution.

During his press conference at the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix, Ariz., Goodell addressed how the NFL will approach the Kraft case. 

"As I think we said several weeks ago, the personal conduct policy applies to everybody -- commissioners, owners, executives, players, coaches -- and it will be applied to everybody," said Goodell. "But it will be done after we get all the facts, we have all the information, and we'll be fair and smart about it. And that's what we'll do."

Goodell was asked about a potential punishment for Kraft, and whether he would be the one to discipline the Patriots owner.

"When we get all the information, we'll make determinations. I'm not going to speculate on where we are or my views on anything. Until we get all the information, we're not to make any discussions or any comments about that. The personal conduct policy is my responsibility."

As Goodell awaits more information on Kraft, the process could take a while. Earlier on Tuesday, Kraft waived his arraignment and requested a jury trial.
