I was like...no way. I went and read the thread and then I was like...ohhhh.

More reasons to be glad Marvin and Company are out the door. Nice guys. Good people. Bad decision makers when it comes to personnel.

He stole the woman's phone, she came at him to get it back, he fought her off.

It shows that he has a criminal mentality, thinking it was okay to grab her phone away from her.
I would just go ahead and release him.

Okay Taylor, you want immediate respect? Here you go. Set an example.

I thought they needed to address running back in the later rounds before Walton got arrested. This draft is loaded with decent running backs so they could easily find one in the 5th or 6th round.

Just showing off your privilege to judge.

Is judging a "privilege"? Can't anyone do it, regardless of their status in life?

What kind of guy gets into a cat fight? Guy acts likes like a girl to go along with playing like a girl. Cut him please.

....then they got into a "tussle" and both he and the woman got scratches from the incident.  For me, if I'm in charge, I'd almost have to cut him for just being stupid.  He's obviously not very bright if he got into a fight because HIS car was blocking the entrance to a parking facility.  I mean, just move the damn car....how hard is it?

Makes me wonder if the phrase "Do you know who I am?" was ever uttered.

Obviously it was too hard to move his car. The guy obviously lacks enough common courtesy to just park his car correctly to begin with. I guess he thought no one else mattered but him. I bet that if I parked my car in such a way as to block his he'd be plenty mad.

But..but...I'm in the NFL and you're not.

Reply--maybe not any more, dude.

Not making excuses for him, but this is a young man that's had a rough life:

Walton's father, Mark Walton, Sr., was murdered when he was young. His mother, Kimberly Rogers, passed away in March 2017.

[*pally*]

Apparently, this was his 2nd arrest this offseason. He was caught with a bag of pot in January.

Just cut the guy.

[*ochocincos*]

It's not worth the headache to keep the third string RB who was a Rd 4 pick last year. There are plenty of other RBs to pick from. Heck, Zac Stacy sure looked solid this weekend in the AAF. He's not super agile, but he can power through holes, catch, and block on passing downs. That's plenty good enough for RB3.

None of the news reports that I found say that.  Can you provide a link?

From what I've read it appears more like he stole her phone.

That shouldn't be an excuse, if it is, then it's pretty poor. He's not the only person that has ever had parents taken from his life.
