U.S. District Judge Richard Berman has decided to nullify the four-game suspension of New England Patriots quarterback over his supposed role in the "Deflategate" scandal, according to the Associated Press.
Berman had previously pushed for a settlement, calling it a "rational and logical option" as he saw pros and cons to both sides' arguments. After the NFL and its players union failed to do so during last-minute negotiations, the judge said he would deliver a ruling this week.
