Yup. But some states don't have statutes that suit the NFL.
The NFL has its own set of laws/rules. The NFL may ADD a lifetime ban for a second offense, just in case the local law is not harsh enough.

The states do decide the punishments. In RI the law escalates from 1st offense to 3rd offense. Abatterer with a 3rd offense faces up to ten years in prison.
The NFL can add whatever punishmen.
