Hearing Officer Ramon Foster Upholds Derick Hall's Suspension

Ramon Foster, a hearing officer jointly appointed and compensated by the NFL and NFLPA, upheld the one-game suspension without pay for Seattle Seahawks linebacker Derick Hall. The suspension was issued for unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct after Hall stepped on an opponent's leg during a game. Foster's decision means Hall will miss the Seahawks' upcoming Week 17 matchup against the Panthers.
