Zeke and NFL have discussed settlement

[LocimusPrime]

Hmmmmm what's this about

 

[Risen Star]

Would make no sense if he's innocent.

 

[windward]

Zeke has the leverage. Exert as much pressure as you can on this.

 

[SlammedZero]

This an interesting twist to the plot.

I would take the deal if it were this:

Two game suspension for conduct detrimental.

NFL MUST drop any mention of domestic violence. No counseling, or future possibilities of being banned for life.

As I said in other thread

1 game only for simply there even being an issue. But the trade off would be there isn’t a charge for domestic violence. I’m all for this to avoid further distraction.

Zeke has openly said he needs to smarten up and make better life choices. This game is against SF. Get one game done and come back with a fresh start against Washington and let’s go on a Fn run

He can't take any settlement that labels him for DV. Otherwise he might as well fight it to the end. It will be the same result.

One game

Which is what they should have done to begin with and none of this would have happened.

Even 2 is ridiculous

1 for first time offender. That’s a slap on the wrist.

Settlement= no suspension

Goodell is starting to get concerned that this mess plus all the other issues he's failing on might cost him that new ridiculous contract.

 

[Sydla]

Any settlement better be significantly one sided.

 

[crashintonickdm]

In all honesty, they should replace goodell. Too many blown situations with real issues. Need a clean state. Ray rice should’ve been the end

The NFL knows this isn't going their way if they are offering a settlement. If I'm Elliott I tell them no settlement.

 

[Wood]

noway. Zeke has momentum now. Multiple federal judges see major problem with fundamental fairness in this arbitration case. Let it go to appellate court. If they see this case as different from Brady (which it is) then I think Zeke wins this.

 

[goshan]

both sides are equally hurt. Zeke does not have leverage. He will lose in court. they should both do it. 2 games (no way NFL agrees to 1). Drop DV, just say conduct.

Keep dreaming. NFL has 90% chance of winning in long run.

Yea I'm a little shocked the NFL is even negotiating. Not like them at all.
