NFL Denies Fine and Bans Eagles’ Dom DiSandro Despite Appeal.,!!

The NFL rejected the Eagles’ appeal of a $100,000 fine and suspension of the league’s head of team security, Dom DiSandro, for the remainder of the regular season, according to Friday. Philadelphia was fined and reports say the team has already paid the fine.

Despite the sideline suspension stemming from his involvement in an altercation with 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw, DiSandro was cleared to travel and perform all other work duties. He is expected to return to the sidelines at the end of the season.

After the reception, DiSandro pulled Greenlaw away and exchanged words.

Greenlaw, who was penalized for unnecessary roughness, responded by reaching across the umpires and putting his hand in DiSandro’s face, leading to his ejection and subsequent $10,927 fine by the league.

Although DiSandro left the field to cheers from Eagles fans, the NFL reiterated its policy in a memo to teams that prohibits non-players from physically touching, taunting or insulting opposing players or officials.

The memo emphasized that only referees or coaches should intervene in disputes, and violations could result in fines or suspensions. Ezoic During the appeals process, DiSandro met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.

DiSandro, who has been with the Eagles since 1999, is not only the team’s safety director, but also an advisor to general manager Howie Roseman. DiSandro, 45, who despite his low profile is known for frequent appearances in front of television cameras, oversees all safety matters for players, coaches and trainers.

His responsibilities include managing security at the team’s practice complex, implementing security measures for team travel and providing training on the NFL’s personal conduct policy.
