Hope that he is going to be in jail some time soon, so no team can take a chance for him. The NFL policy sucks.
"... he will go from a $30M guarantee in March to $9M guaranteed to just $158,333 made for 2019." "Business is booming"
Have to admit though the story about hiring a female artist to come paint a naked portrait of himself is kind of baller.
they were waiting for him to act up so they can go after him while he has a bad image. Hes much more prone right now.
Tomlin and the Steelers must have really protected him, as he said. There's alot of stuff that they overlooked, brushed off, or kept away from the media. Now, everyone is seeing what they went through as an organization. He came in the door as an unassuming guy, but came more and more outrageous with his success. Now this.
I don't know why he went after a woman who basically wasn't going to come after him. Why poke the sleeping dog. Yet, all of that said, nothing has really changed because he still isn't facing criminal charges. It's more complicated now than it was to pick him up this week, but in the end, the nfl is likely still handcuffed on the administrative leave issue. There's a team out there I think who will take the chance. At most, what could the nfl give him since the case won't be decided in forever and it's not even criminal.
This is more a less a nail in the coffin because now no owner can trust he won't be thrown under the bus. And that's something you can't overlook when thinking about signing someone. He's done and fried now. Made 70M which is enough to live on. But you can burn through that if you live large. It will be interesting to hear where he is 20 years later and if he has regrets. If he loses that Civil suit he's gonna be hurtin. He actually had the system by the balls, but blew it, and now the system owned him. That's gotta sting his ego. Literally days away from 30M and hours away from 10M for free.
I get what he's getting at but this isn't about the sexual assault case. The Patriots released him because his dumb ass was sending threatening messages and they didn't want to have to deal with him being a clown week to week. They would have been more than willing to deal with the case and be patient about it, they already showed that. He needs help.
