NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell sidestepped questions about President Donald Trump and his policies. During his annual pre-Super Bowl news conference Wednesday, Goodell did not offer any substantive thoughts about Trump, his executive order restricting refugees and immigration from seven countries or his plans to build a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says he and the Patriots have a ”disagreement about what occurred” with regard to the scandal that came to be known as ”Deflategate,” but he still has a ”deep and close relationship” with team owner Robert Kraft.
