The Bills’ spitting scandal has come to a close. Bills defensive back Sam Franklin got his one-game suspension overturned Friday, winning an appeal to the NFL after the league penalized him for allegedly spitting at an opposing player during Buffalo’s Week 6 win over the Raiders. Rather than a suspension, the NFL reduced Franklin’s punishment to a $14,926 fine, according to a statement from the league.
