ESPN.com’s Mike Rodak reported last Thursday that Kromer pleaded not guilty to the charges, with a pretrial hearing scheduled for September 2.
The disciplinary action comes two days after prosecutors in Florida dropped a battery charge against Kromer for allegedly punching a boy in the face for using his beach chairs last month.
The Buffalo Bills issued a statement involving the incident that they were still investigating and collecting information, just as the NFL was doing as well.
The Bills released a statement through their public relations department.
The Bills suspended offensive line coach Aaron Kromer for six games without pay on Sunday, according to NFL Network. “We labored together with the NFL on this matter and we’re extremely supportive of the NFL Private Conduct Coverage that holds all NFL membership staff to a better normal”. Kromer, who was hired in January, will be able to coach the team during training camp, though there is no word on when he is expected to join the team at St. John Fisher College.
He was fired at the end of the season, along with the rest of the coaching staff. He hooked on with the Buffalo Bills as an offensive line coach, then found worse headlines. He will be at training camp with the Buffalo Bills and working on the offensive line, that so desperately needs help.
Kromer will rejoin the Buffalo Bills on the sideline, but not until October when the Bills play the Bengals on Oct. 18.
