(Gambling911.com Sports Wire) – Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy is suspended for four games but that’s a far cry from the ten-game suspension he had previously been looking at prior to Thursday’s successful appeal ruling.

ESPN noted that Hardy was initially suspended in April by the NFL for what it deemed to be multiple violations of the league's personal conduct policy during an incident with a former girlfriend in the spring of 2014. She later declined to press charges.
