According to Ian Rapoport, Ross could be removed as an NFL owner if 75% of the other owners vote to get rid of him if the allegations are proven true.
Roger Goodell previously hinted at removal being a possibility, and fans are now getting a clearer picture of how it could happen.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says he found all of the allegations in the Brian Flores lawsuit “very disturbing.” “Integrity of the game is very important.” Goodell says when he knows the facts about alleged tanking, “We’ll deal with it very seriously.”

For the record, Ross has completely denied the allegations from Flores and he’s holding the line that he didn’t do anything wrong.
So, right now, it’s two men with very different stories, and it’s hard to know for sure who is telling the truth.

The biggest thing to me is how we’re ever going to know if there’s concrete proof. Even if Ross did offer money to lose games, does anyone think he put that in writing? Furthermore, Flores said he never took money for losses.
So, it’s not like they could even check bank deposits.
