Portis didnt steal any money from any other players.

Allows up to 350k for each former player per year for out-of-pocket medical expenses. So Portis made a bogus claim against the potential 350k he could get reimbursed. Whether Portis uses or doesnt use the full 350k alloted to him doesnt effect any other players ability to access their 350k.

Fraud is fraud but the charges against Portis are for a one time fraudulent act ...
