No for real, he signed a 1 year deal with 10M guaranteed and they cut him after 1 game...

No way he gets all the money he signed for after 1 game. I’ll concede he may get 2 weeks worth despite 1 game.

At this point they owe him 9 mil... It's up to the Patriots to find a way out of paying it. (And the league agreeing with it)
 
I dont think there is any way that the Patriots flat dropped him with that kind of money on the line without knowing something. I am guessing they have talked to the NFL after the interview of Britney Taylor as well as the new allegations which align with one of the incidents described by Taylor. Then the "intimidation" text was the icing on the cake. They have to think all of that is enough to trigger the player conduct clauses and will negate what they owe.
 
I don't even know why he texted the artist, it didn't read like she was going after him anyway. Let the sleeping dog lie. Instead he poked it. That was dumb. But all in all he's still just facing a civil case. Think it's definitely more complicated to pick him up now because the NFL can't put him on administrative leave until he is picked up. Yet, I think without anything criminal on him, some team may be willing to do it because the NFL is still handcuffed to act without a criminal case.

I dont think their player conduct code rules are tied to criminal cases. If they are representing the league in ways unbecoming, they will have problems.
 
This is more a less a nail in the coffin because now no owner can trust he won't be thrown under the bus. And that's something you can't overlook when thinking about signing someone. He's done and fried now. Made 70M which is enough to live on. But you can burn through that if you live large. It will be interesting to hear where he is 20 years later and if he has regrets. If he loses that Civil suit he's gonna be hurtin. He actually had the system by the balls, but blew it, and now the system just owned him. That's gotta sting his ego. Literally days away from 30M and hours away from 10M for free
