Non-disparagement clauses are regularly part of settlements or severance/termination agreements. It has absolutely nothing to do with the NFL's supposedly totalitarian culture, it's just the nature of the agreement. You certainly know this, so why do you even claim otherwise? This isn't sports radio. If Mike Brown or Danny Ferry (one can only hope and pray) had been kicked to the curb, an almost identical clause would have found its way into the agreement.
