What is a football arbiter?

Answer 1

Arbitration is a process in which two sides agree to participate in a bargaining process outside of the US Court system in order to resolve a single problem or multiple issues.

The person who makes the final decision is known as at Arbitrator. The Arbitrator is a neutral third party with no ties to either side in the argument. The opposing sides choose the Arbitrator together. The two sides present their arguments and the Arbitrator decides how the issue will be resolved. The decision is binding upon both parties, just like a court ordered judgment would be.

A football arbitrator is someone who resolves issues between players and teams, teams the NFL Players association, the NFL League and teams, and the NFL League and the Players Association.
