NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday at the Pro Bowl that the NFL is willing to give former Patriots video assistant Matt Walsh legal indemnification for any information and materials he would provide to the league regarding his work with the Patriots.

Goodell also said Wednesday he's willing to pursue any believable information in the Spygate case, but he simply doesn't know if any exists.

League attorneys are working with an attorney for Walsh to get an agreement in place for Walsh to meet with league officials.

In general legal terms, indemnity is a guarantee against any loss which another might suffer, often financially.

Well it looks like the NFL is gonna find out if this guy has the story or not.

1. This is a smart more by Goodell.

If there's nothing there, the league wins.

If there IS something there, well the coverup is always worse than the deed, so this will end up being the better option and the league wins again.

2. Good, I hope that the league investigates all the teams as well

Mike Holley from WEEI radio in Boston has stated for the past two days that he has multiple sources that have confirmed to him that there was no taping done during the Rams walk thru before Superbowl 36
