The NFL can be very heavy-handed in situations like this. Here's to hoping that they let the legal process take care of it.

To me, in the presence means the child is there watching and not in a separate room. If it’s the latter he’s screwed though.

Sounds like Episode [insert infinite number here] of Should Have Worn A Rubber.

Fortunately, we've seen no mention of the child at all. It could be as simple as the child being at a babysitter or a relative and wasn't there at all.

We just don't know but we can hope.

Just going by what's out there which is property damage, then no seriously doubt it.

Speculating that it is more than property damage like you're doing in stupid. There is so far nothing out there that says he did anything to a person.

There is a difference between taking the known and speculating vs, wildly speculating. There is no evidence or info that he hit a person.

His rep is wrong. That’s not how DV cases are handled here. The only way it’s done today is if the DA drops the charge.

His reps statement said he was there visiting his child.

Edit: well his son’s house

Seems it would be pretty big reach to charge DV on a broken vacuum...

Dude, have you read the reports?

He doesn't have to do anything to a person to be subject to the NFL's policy. There are specific mitigating circumstances that he could meet without ever touching her.

Let's make it clear:

I'm not talking about what will happen nor what I want to happen. Merely what CAN happen. The NFL has proven fickle in cases like this, sometimes doing nothing when action is warranted and sometimes acting with an iron fist when it isn't needed.

There's nothing wrong with talking about this - we all want to know if he'll play on Sunday.

It happens all the time.

I know someone who was convicted of DV because he punched a hole in the wall, despite not touching anyone on the premises.

Yeah, but how is my ex-wife going to get to work now? Only kidding, of course. She doesn’t have a job.

In Kansas, cops can be charged with a misdemeanor themselves if they don’t arrest on DV charges. Broken wine glass in an arguement? Arrested. Threw a slice of pizza during a lovers quarrel? Arrested. So, yeah, a vacuum (wall and doorframe) is getting charged in Kansas.

Wouldn't she just ride the broom?
