Hate how it was put, It's really just the 6 game suspension that was put on domestic violence after the Rice case.

I might would argue it was too much, but he got paid for like 8-9 games that he didn't play while he was waiting for his legal situation to play out, so I'd say he actually made out pretty well in the whole thing.

Did not know that. I am a little troubled by what the NFL is doing now but I have little patience for what he did. Photos were sickening.

he was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt list. Which basically means they pay his salary while he's in limbo, but he doesn't count towards their 53-man roster.

He has just finally been removed from this list now that he's suspended.

Back on it for the duration of the appeal.

Unsuprisingly, appeal denied.
