While it's good news for Vilma that he can resume collecting game checks, there's still no guarantee he'll help the Saints this year. Vilma has undergone three surgeries on his left knee since last November. The 30-year-old didn't participate in any practices or preseason games with the Saints this summer and fall.

Yeah, I wonder why that was the case?!

Awesome news regardless of the fact that it isn't totally over yet.

Goodell made Vilma's suspension begin immediately after the ruling.

Yeah, I was just making fun of the report, which made it sound like Vilma had chosen not to take part in the offseason activities with the Saints out of his own volition.
