I don't think, under the collective bargaining agreement that the Steelers have with the players union, that the Steelers can dispense any sort of "punishment". What they can do is fire him and get out from their contractual obligation to him.

I wish the teams could punish players rather than the league, but it is what it is.

I'd be willing to take that bet. You down? A fiver?
