When you're barely on the roster, and you wreck a car drunk in Key West, you get released.
When you're accused of DV, and you're a 2nd rounder, you let the process play out.
Personally, I have no problem with this fact. It's true of every level of sport. More talent = more leeway. Being fair, has nothing to do with it.
However, I don't see how he wiggles out of this one, in the end. Especially if some Ring doorbell footage comes out. The NFL won't tolerate that optic, no matter what the legal result is.
