If it's reduced one option would be to appeal so that he can play against the Giants then withdraw the appeal and serve the suspension. He wouldn't miss a division game that way.
The suspension will be reduced.

But Zeke will sue the NFL for wrongful deliberation on the Domestic Abuse conclusion.

This is his reputation here.

Zeke will get an injunction on the suspension and will play while it goes to court.

This could take all season to play out.

Meanwhile Zeke plays.

I used to work for attorneys in my past life.

I learned a few things.

If this happens..Zeke's attorneys can then subpena the girlfriend and she will have to testify.

Then it gets more interesting than the actual football games.

If that chick wasn't offended, why should we care? The NFL is picking on Zeke for the same type of party behavior that they love to promote Gronk for.
Even though I agree with what you are saying, I can see an argument that it shows a public disrespecting of women. Just because it has been "acceptable" doesn't mean it should stay that way.

I would LOVE this. Henderson didn't require her to attend his hearing but when they go to court she won't have a choice. It'll get ugly, but it is necessary to clear his good name.

He's wrong plenty but he was right about the suspensions when most of us were in denial.

But honestly, that wasn't that big of a reach. I mean, there were plenty who accurately forecasting suspension for Zeke, even on this board.

Zeke should be able to challenge goodell to arm wrestling. Zeke wins it's 0. Goodell wins it's lifetime ban.
Boom problem solved

I think anyone smart enough to ACTUALLY look at the evidence knew it would be reduced. Now he will still get something for the incident in March but the DV stuff will go away. If I was Zeke I would make the Commissioner come on tv and apologize for calling him a woman beater.

In what world would a player have the power to make Goodell do this? Zeke has no leverage here. At the end of the day, the Commissioner (IMO), holds are the cards. I see no way the courts will rule in favor of Elliott.

The one court that counts to the owners of the NFL. The Court of public opinion.
