    Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma left his meeting with the NFL on Monday with nothing resolved and his attorney expects the NFL to rule on his case later this week, but said it could be next week as well, reports the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

    Vilma’s attorney Peter Ginsburg said that Vilma was 100 percent truthful in the meeting with Commissioner Roger Goodell.

    ESPN.com is reporting that the NFL gave Vilma a sworn affidavit from former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams showing that Vilma offered $10,000 to any teammate who knocked Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre out of the 2010 NFC Championship game. That affidavit signed by Williams was dated September 14.

    Vilma was initially suspended for the 2012 season for his role in the bounty scandal, but an appeals court reversed that decision.

    Game Over. Vilma. Anyone that still thinks the Saints are innocent now, are idiots.
