NFL commissioner set to investigate Arizona Cardinals after 'cheating' spat

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is set to investigate Arizona Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill over allegations of cheating, discrimination and harassment filed by a former team executive.

On Tuesday, former Cardinals executive Terry McDonough filed an arbitration claim accusing Bidwill of gross misconduct throughout his ownership tenure. McDonough claimed he and then-Cardinals coach Steve Wilks were instructed to use burner phones to communicate with former Arizona general manager Steve Keim during the GM's five-week suspension in 2018 for extreme DUI.

McDonough claimed he still has the phone, which he said contains the evidence of the alleged cheating, as well as other documentation. He also claims he objected to using the burner phone but that his stance was overruled.
