Walsh was a Pats’ assistant on their first Super Bowl team, which some St. Louis Rams players allege illegally taped their last pre-SB practice. Because Walsh signed a non-disclosure agreement when he left the Pats, he needs the indemnification deal.
But, what does he actually know? Here’s Goodell:
“If there is new information that is credible, new material that could be credible that would help us,” Goodell said, “yes, we'll look at it.
“We’ve had people come to us over the last six months with material that we pursued and it didn’t lead to anything.”
Among the things the league wants to talk to Walsh about is a recent Boston Herald report that a member of the Patriots’ video staff taped the St. Louis Rams' pregame walk-through before Super Bowl XXXVI.
“We were aware of this before,” Goodell said. “We pursued it and weren’t able to get any information that was credible. We were aware of some of the rumors and we pursued some of them and we continue that. From Day 1, I said if we feel there is new information that’s inconsistent with what we've been told [by the Patriots], I reserve the right to reopen it.”
In other words, stay tuned. That includes you, Kurt Warner.
