Quote:The NFL says there is "no basis" for a personal conduct investigation against Michael Bennett after the head of the union that represents Las Vegas police officers asked NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to investigate and "take appropriate action" against the Seattle Seahawks defensive end for alleging officers racially profiled him in an incident after the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight on Aug. 26.
The letter written by Steve Grammas, president of the Las Vegas Police Protective Association, on Thursday comes a day after Bennett said he was detained "for doing nothing more than simply being a black man in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
“I hope to have a discussion with Commissioner Goodell so we can have a conversation about these allegations that our officers are racist and racially profiled Mr. Bennett,” Grammas said in a phone interview with USA TODAY Sports. “We don’t like players from the National Football League making false allegations, which, I feel, is a violation of the NFL’s personal conduct policy.”
The NFL concluded there was no cause to launch any probe.
"There is no allegation of a violation of the league’s personal conduct policy and therefore there is no basis for an NFL investigation," league spokesman Brian McCarthy wrote in an email to USA TODAY Sports.
NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith said in a tweet that there are "no grounds" for an investigation.
