The NFL kind of painted themselves into a corner going so light on owners like Kraft. When a 3rd party looked at this, that had to factor in.

Bengals have history of violence against women

Multiple arrests since 2000 preceded drafting of Joe Mixon

The Bengals' record includes:

• Eight arrests involving reported attacks on women since 2000, according to media databases that track NFL player arrests.
  
  

• A league-leading number of arrests and citations between 2000 and 2009.
  
  

• A claim by a former player's abused wife that the Bengals advised her to call club officials -- not the police -- when her husband attacked her so the club could avoid bad publicity.
  
  

It also shows when top players were accused of attacking women, the Bengals kept them on the team. Lesser players were dismissed, but sometimes later rather than sooner.

In 2006, the Bengals drafted a player who had been accused of sexual assault five months earlier and allowed him to remain on the team for a year while he had two more arrests. 

After the Bengals drafted Mixon last week, Lewis said the Oklahoma running back, who was 18 when he punched a 20-year-old woman and broke four bones in her face

Hmmm...let thee who has not sinned cast the first stone!
