Until he’s cleared, the classy thing to do would be to suspend him pending an investigation.
Ok let's test that.
So if a woman accuses Mahomes of raping her, but never goes to the cops to press charges but files a civil suit instead seeking $ you think the Chiefs should suspend him? [Reply]

Look at this rape apologist
Look at him. Talk about not classy at all. Patriots fans are such garbage to defend rape. [Reply]

Right thing to do? That’s really subjective. We each probably have a different definition of what the right thing to do is in this situation.
If I’m the Patriots, I would suspend him like the Chiefs suspended Hill and allow the investigation to play out before making a decision.
He isn’t vital to the Patriots winning. They’ll be more than good without him. We all know that.
Which scenario is worse:
Playing him (which can be seen as passively supporting him) and having him turn out to be guilty.
-or-
Not playing him and having him turn out to be innocent.
It’s safe to assume that the Patriots know more about the situation than any of us. The way they respond to this situation as it unfolds will tell us a lot. [Reply]

Polygraph tests that the victim passed and the messages from AB that said "fuk u btch I cm n ur bck lmao" are pretty damning. Start combining this other trainer "is money hungry" this chef "is money hungry" the people he threw furniture at "are money hungry"
When are you going to stop being an enabler because he can catch a football real good? Rape lover. [Reply]

We suspended Tyreek from draft weekend in March all the way to the start of training camp in July while he was under investigation - not only was he never charged with a crime, it turns out that he didn't do anything, it was his "baby momma" and her family trying to extort him. [Reply]

The Chiefs suspended Hill because social services was investigating a potential abuse case. They were already reeling from Hunt's issue and decided it was a good PR measure.

I'm aware of the situation and I don't think he should have been suspended. [Reply]
