Washington, DC (SportsNetwork.com) - Former FBI director Robert Mueller said his investigation found no evidence that the NFL saw the elevator video of Ray Rice striking his then-fiancee before the tape was released in September. Muellers report did, however, say the league should have conducted a more thorough investigation of the incident before issuing the initial two-game suspension to Rice, who was then suspended indefinitely after the video inside the elevator showed the former Baltimore Ravens running back punching Janay Palmer and knocking her unconscious. Rice, who was released by the Ravens after the additional video came to light and just before the league announced its extended suspension, won an appeal of the extensive penalty but did not play during the 2014 season. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was widely criticized for his handling of the case, which stemmed from Rices assault of Palmer -- now his wife -- in the elevator of an Atlantic City casino in February. Goodell said the league never saw the video of the actual punch until it was released by TMZ.com in September, but a report from the Associated Press said a law enforcement official said he sent a copy of the video to an NFL executive in April, two months after the incident and five months before the initial suspension was issued. The AP story said a woman at the NFLs office confirmed receipt of the video in an April 9 phone call, prompting the league to give Mueller authority to conduct an independent investigation. According to Muellers report, he and his colleagues interviewed more than 200 NFL employees and contractors, including every female employee, contractor or vendor whose electronic badge recorded that she was in the leagues main office on that day. Digital forensics experts searched computers and mobile phones of the leagues senior executives, including Goodell, for any evidence of the in-elevator video. Investigators also reviewed millions of documents, e-mails, text messages and electronic data logs during the four-month inquiry. In summarizing the process, Mueller concluded: We found no evidence that anyone at the NFL had or saw the in-elevator video before it was publicly shown. We also found no evidence that a woman at the NFL acknowledged receipt of that video in a voicemail message on April 9, 2014. We concluded there was substantial information about the incident -- even without the in-elevator video -- indicating the need for a more thorough investigation. The NFL should have done more with the information it had, and should have taken additional steps to obtain all available information about the Feb. 15 incident. Muellers report said the NFL has done well to change its personal conduct policy in the wake the incident, but added that the league needs to be more assertive in its investigations and rely less on the legal system. The investigators identified a weakness -- as they call it -- in the leagues long-standing practice of deferring to the criminal justice system when matters like this arise, said New York Giants president John Mara and Pittsburgh Steelers president Art Rooney II in a statement after Muellers report was issued. Mr. Mueller concludes that the league should have conducted a more substantial independent investigation of this matter and he has made six recommendations. This morning, we spoke to commissioner Goodell about these recommendations. We want to review them and understand them in greater detail. We look forward to moving forward on this. Goodells credibility came under scrutiny during the process, but the owners statement following Muellers report backed the commissioners actions. It is clear to us that commissioner Goodell was forthright in the statements he made to the owners about this matter, and we have every confidence that Roger Goodell is the right person to lead the league as we move forward, Mara and Rooney said.

Toronto (6-4-3, 21 points) ran its unbeaten streak to six as it resisted late Chicago pressure to earn a 1-1 tie at soggy Toyota Park. Midfielder Jackson scored Torontos lone goal in the 42nd minute, heading a feed from forward Jermain Defoe past Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson. "Any point on the road is a good point, especially when youre down to 10 men," said Toronto coach Ryan Nelsen, whose team remains unbeaten (3-0-3) in league play since a May 3 loss to New England. "They (the Fire) did very well in the second half and pushed us hard. We had to defend and we defended very well." Forward Luke Moore was issued a red card and ejected in the 29th minute after a mid-air collision with Fire midfielder Chris Ritter and Toronto played the final hour with 10 men. Toronto FC was also outshot 20-7 and trailed in possession by a lopsided 62-38 per cent. Yet Chicago mustered only one score - Harry Shipps sixth goal of the season in the 56th minute. "We did enough to win the game, when its 10 men against 11 we should win the game," said Fire coach Frank Yallop, whose team is winless in five games. "We had our chances, its frustrating. We had themm.dddddddddddd Thats our problem right now, we cant seem to win a game." Numerous other Chicago shots went wide, fell short or were stopped by Toronto goalkeeper Joe Bendik, who had five saves. In the 73rd minute an apparent go-ahead goal by Fire defender Bakary Soumare was waved off on an offside call. Toronto was playing its second game in five days while Chicago was among the last Major League Soccer teams to restart the season after a lengthy World Cup break. "This point is very valuable," Nelsen said. "It proves that away from home weve been down to 10 men twice and weve managed to get something out of the game and that was extremely important." Moores ejection came after a midfield battle for possession with Ritter. Moore appeared to elbow Ritter in the right temple. Ritter temporarily left the game but was back within three minutes with his his head bandaged. The ejection includes an automatic suspension for Saturdays home game with D.C. United. Toronto was missing goalkeeper Julio Cesar, who helped carry host Brazil into the World Cups final eight, as well as recent midfielder acquisition Michael Bradley, expected back soon from a U.S. team stint. Wednesdays game was played under steady drizzle and unusually cool temperatures.
