Zeke gets 6 games for suspected domestic violence incidents. He's not allowed at the Cowboys facilities at all from Week 1 through Week 6. Wow. I guess Goodell learned something from the Ray Rice fiasco.
While I am normally very uneasy with the league taking action when prosecutors wouldn't bring charges (let alone in the absence of a conviction), I like the action here. Domestic violence cases are notoriously difficult to prosecute (I know many women who were victims but not one got relief in the courts), and I don't exactly trust the Columbus PD and prosecutors office to treat Zeke like anyone other than OSU royalty. Goodell seems to have leaned on experts on this one rather than act as judge and jury on this. I would like to see him recuse himself from the appeal, however.
Hopefully, this message gets through to Zeke that he needs to grow up quickly if he wants a career in the NFL.
