Cardinals Scouting Director Suspended Indefinitely for Gambling Violations

The NFL has confirmed the indefinite suspension of Ryan Gold, Director of College Scouting for the Arizona Cardinals, for violating the league's gambling policy.

The investigation found two distinct violations. Gold placed parlay bets on NFL and college games, which is strictly prohibited for all NFL personnel. He also provided confidential, non-public information about the Cardinals' 2026 draft selections to third parties before those picks were announced. The NFL did not identify who received that information.
