NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is not resigning from his post as he addressed the media on Friday to answer queries on the controversies surrounding the league's players and issues of domestic violence, the Washington Post reported.

Goodell expressed regret over the issues that Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson and Greg Hardy are facing charges involving domestic abuse and assault.

In the press conference, Goodell was quoted as saying, "I'm not satisfied with the way we handled it from the get-go I made a mistake. I'm not satisfied with the process that we went through. I'm not satisfied with the conclusions I let myself down. I let everybody else down, and for that, I'm sorry, as I mentioned earlier. But that's what we're going to correct, and that's what we're going to fix."

Goodell is under fire for how NFL handled the conduct of its players. His resignation was sought by several quarters including corporate sponsors.

Several media outlets including Washington Post stated that although Goodell said that changes are going to be made in the league, what changes he will implement are vague.

One of its players from Ravens, Rice faced domestic abuse in February, the report said, Rice only got a suspension but following the video of him hitting his wife Janay Palmer in an elevator, which as the basis of the charges, the player was indefinitely suspended from the league. NFL faced criticism for its lack of proper investigation into the matter.

Panther's Hardy, meanwhile in July was convicted of domestic violence while Viking's Peterson is facing child abuse charges.

In the same report, Goodell has said he will meet with the players' union to discuss the matter and to get inputs on how to proceed with the matter.

He will also be seeking inputs from outside advisers, he added.
