He didn't play, he was hurt.Odd that he was arrested on essentially Friday night and the team either didn't become aware or chose to allow him to play Sunday.
Strangulation is a terrible sign, it's almost always an indicator for a severe domestic abuser.Sounds pretty bad, doubly so if the other person is definitely identified as his wife or significant other. What a great season this has been.
Thanks, missed that he was out, though the report that it was possession of cocaine would not seem to be a pain pill situation.He didn't play, he was hurt.
(wonder if the substance was pain pills of some variety)
Ah, I didn't read the full story just saw the headlines listing the charges.Thanks, missed that he was out, though the report that it was possession of cocaine would not seem to be a pain pill situation.
My thoughts too, just the wording in the statements so far has been vague. And yeah, he gets his day in court, but I’m fine if his locker is cleaned out today.Strangulation is a terrible sign, it's almost always an indicator for a severe domestic abuser.
Cut him and be done. My God.
This is exactly where my mind went, too- I give talks about intimate partner violence, and strangulation is a HUGE risk factor for homicide.Strangulation is a terrible sign, it's almost always an indicator for a severe domestic abuser.

Right. Got to respect due process here. Count the swings before taking any real stand. Not like they've been burned on that before.Im glad the Patriots didn't do anything rash and just benched him on Saturday. If it was something crazy, cut him. But if he only, like, hit someone with a bat and choked them out while amped up on speed, maybe just give him a few weeks away from the team.
Strangulation and cocaine and domestic assault. Get his ass off the team.Right. Got to respect due process here. Count the swings before taking any real stand. Not like they've been burned on that before.
The incident is obviously not on Mayo, but he's already fumbling the response. With BB gone the "no one is in charge everyone is in charge" approach down there is not off to a great start.
This feels right to me. Putting aside the awful social and moral component to this, and thinking of a purely from a football standpoint, this is extremely disappointing. A guy who had a ton of skill and talent who had finally found his place on the team and had emerged as a leader.Dammit. Unless there's some hellacious misunderstanding here, he needs to be gone.
I liked what he brought but he's not gonna be part of the next playoff team here, and if he can't help build the culture, there's no need.
I have no problems taking our lumps on the field, but I don't wanna root for that.
Yeah. And I don't think Mayo has fumbled the response. At least not yet.Strangulation and cocaine and domestic assault. Get his ass off the team.
It's the NFL. Video required for such harsh punishment.Strangulation and cocaine and domestic assault. Get his ass off the team.

Not noted, but it was at a residence and the victim was female, which usually is all you get unless the woman in question comes forwardLink to where this is noted as a domestic?
All the reporting I’ve seen is that the victim is unidentified
not sure it matters too much but I think the public perception of him being coked up and choking out his partner is probably different than if he got into a tussle over drugs with another guy
Where are you guys seeing domestic assault? Not saying it wasn't, just looking at the news posted here it doesn't seem to say that. Or I missed it, which could be the case.
Details about the incident were not revealed in court. According to court documents, the accuser told police that around 4 a.m., Peppers hit and choked her multiple times before pushing her down the stairs.
"Judge, despite the fact that this is the case where there is evidence I have already seen that sheds real doubt on the allegations, including videotaped evidence, my client will not object to that condition and he'll agree to the same thing," Peppers' attorney said.
I agree. Was trying to be snide. Happy for him to be employed by another team or not at all.Strangulation and cocaine and domestic assault. Get his ass off the team.
I was holding out hope until I saw the word "female" in the above.Update on Jabrill Peppers: he pleaded not guilty in Quincy District Court this morning. He was ordered to stay away from the alleged female victim. His case has been continued to Nov. 22, with his “appearance waived.” If he's arrested again, the judge warned, he can be “held." More with
They had no problem overlooking it with Corey DillonGood chance he’s no longer a patriot this week. This is one issue the Krafts don’t overlook dating back to Christian Peter.
