Remember when people hated on us for drafting a sexual preditor like Frostee Rucker? Remember that AJ Green was suspended in college for selling his game jersey? Remember the tiemes Justin Smith, Leon Hall, and Jonathan Joseph were all arrested for criminal behavior as Bengals?
Except that for some domestic violence hits close to home and will always be something they remember. I've always advocated for players to be able to move on after an incident especially if they paid the price for their actions but this is different. I admit it's because of seeing my dad wail on my mom as a kid but that never goes away.
