My concern is the fact that the Lions released him. Teams just don't knee jerk release a valuable asset just because of the optics. Most of the time the organization's lawyers do their own investigation, and from the information they gather, the organization will either choose to stand behind the player or go ahead and release them. The organization may be looking at the information they've gathered and concluding this isn't going to end well for Arnold.

Terrion was already struggling. They weren’t going to get to play him this year and the optics of it looked bad to keep a player who couldn’t play this year and they wouldn’t want to extend after his rookie contract was up.

Yeah it was business. He was damn near if not the outright leader in DPIs last season. He’s always been a bit grabby for a corner and the NFL officiating doesn’t suffer that from DBs. He didn’t really grow in his ability to cover without grabbing in year 2, so his future in the NFL was not entirely dim but it was believable that his post-rookie contract career was going to be bouncing around on short term deals.

Lions don’t want to lose a year of availability then be in a contract year in 2027. They may believe he’s innocent - they did play him after all - but business realities can’t be ignored in the NFL.

Wasn't he injured last year and sat out the end of the season. May be a convenient excuse to dump him for cause and not have to pay him?

He has done all he could for Ruggs as well. He uses Ruggs’ story a lot when speaking on leadership.


Agreed

Saban is genuinely a good human. It's odd when people online attribute their personal beliefs or how they would act poorly or treat others terrible to him; nah man that is just who "you" are.

He is very demanding but he also will give you his all which is why he expects your all.

Apparently they beat the shite out of them. It was reported that hood rat 1 texted hood rat 2 worried that they were going to beat them to death.

Prisons are even worse than local jails. For every decent person who treats the inmate population like fellow human beings you have half a dozen or more sociopaths straight out of the Shawshank Redemption. That entire industry, and an industry is exactly what it is, is designed to be a human suffering machine that slowly destroys people.


Think about it...what kind of person wakes up every morning and voluntarily goes to prison?

You would be shocked. Some people do chose to go to prison over a local jail. They have a few more freedoms and can get some educational classes.

Might be able to pick up some endorsements for a wheelz and rimz shop in Detroit or Bessemer since he will be a convicted felon and has some real street cred.

Interesting that he’s already working out for other teams. His agent says he’ll likely be signed in the next 45 days.

I’ll say one thing, if the text transcript I saw floating online is accurate and that’s all the prosecution has then Terrion should walk and sue Tampa until he owns Busch Gardens and 1,000 strip clubs(only things I know in Tampa)

…. Because he was cut that quickly and it seemed like his career was over a few days ago? And now he’s already working out for other teams? Why would other teams even be looking at him if it looks like he’s going to prison? Maybe they no know something about the charges?

That doesn’t interest you?

Oh okay. Now that you worded it like that, I get it. I guess it was how you said that had me asking questions. I got it now.
