Tougher enforcement of gambling rules for NFL players

(USA).- NFL teams 'hammer' gambling rules to players in wake of latest betting controversy.
As mandatory minicamps across the NFL began this week, some teams used the time to emphasize a certain point to players: Don't bet on the NFL. And if a player chooses to wager on other sports, they need to make sure they do so away from the team facility.
"We continue to hammer these things home that we've got to be very, very careful and understand it," Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera said Tuesday. "The integrity of the league, integrity of each team ‒ and then the players' own integrity and coaches' integrity for that matter as well ‒ are at stake. And we have to be very, very diligent about this."
In April, five players ‒ including four from the Detroit Lions ‒ were suspended for violating the league's gambling policy. Calvin Ridley's one-year ban was the first high-profile case of a related transgression since sports betting became legal in the United States five years ago. On Monday, Indianapolis Colts cornerback/returner Isaiah Rodgers revealed he was at the center of another investigation. According to reports, he made hundreds of wagers, mostly in the $25-50 range, including some bets on the Colts.
