Goodell, true to form, was only involved with fumbling it a little further

That will never happen because the NFL is far too myopic about ensuring revenue streams for the next week, like most corporate structures (spare me the NP status, others).
I can't imagine them requiring a waiver at the level of the NFL if they don't require it for shit like coal mining (I'm assuming they don't here). The biggest issue isn't the inherent danger of the NFL but their obfuscation of the danger because they were afraid of the aforementioned revenue streams being jeopardized.
Penny-wise, pound foolish.
