NFL players' union sues over Elliott's 6-game domestic ban
The NFL players' union sued the league on behalf of Ezekiel Elliott late Thursday night, seeking to vacate the upcoming ruling of an arbitrator on the appeal of the Dallas running back's six-game suspension in a domestic violence case.The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Texas, accuses the NFL's appeal process of being "fundamentally unfair" because arbitrator Harold Henderson denied a request to have his ex-girlfriend testify at a hearing that wrapped up earlier Thursday.The suit also claims that NFL executives hid information that was favorable to Elliott before Commissioner Roger Goodell imposed the punishment Aug. 11.The lawsuit accuses NFL special counsel Lisa Friel of withholding from Goodell the word of co-lead investigator Kia Roberts, who the suit says concluded that the accuser wasn't credible and that discipline wasn't warranted."The withholding of this critical information from the disciplinary process was a momentous denial of the fundamental fairness required in every arbitration and, of course, does not satisfy federal labor law's minimal due process requirements," the lawsuit said.Henderson is supposed to rule on the NFL's decision to suspend Elliott "as soon as practicable," according to the labor agreement.Elliott, the NFL's 2016 rushing leader as a rookie, was suspended after the league concluded he used physical force last summer in Ohio against Tiffany Thompson, his girlfriend at the time.

Packers fall 20-17 to Denver Broncos in 3rd preseason matchup
DENVER — Jamaal Charles' impressive Denver debut included four rushes for 27 yards Saturday night in the Broncos' 20-17 preseason win over the Green Bay Packers.Charles is embarking on a comeback with the Broncos after the Chiefs released him over the winter following two injury-plagued seasons and several knee surgeries that had limited him to eight games since 2014.In addition to averaging almost seven yards a carry, Charles caught a couple of passes and got good news when he was cleared to return to the field after being evaluated for a concussion midway through his audition.Even better news would be waking up Sunday without a swollen knee or two.The Broncos have a crowded backfield as it is, but a healthy Charles could be a valuable wild card for Mike McCoy's new offense.Von Miller also made his preseason debut and sacked Aaron Rodgers for an 11-yard loss, forcing the Packers to settle for Mason Crosby's 52-yard field goal and ending Rodgers' night after 10 snaps. (He was 3 for 5 for 12 yards).
