NFL Commissioner Goodell will hear Brady's appeal -NFL website

May 14 (Reuters) - NFL Commissioner Goodell will hear New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's suspension appeal, the NFL website said on Thursday. NFL Media reported that the league confirmed its decision to the outlet. Reuters could not immediately verify the report independently. The NFL players union, which filed the appeal on behalf of Brady earlier on Thursday, called for an independent arbitrator to hear the case involving one of the league's marquee players.
