it's really gross.I don't follow it much but wasn't Ray Rice banned from NFL? Or was it just no one re-signed him?
"
On March 27, 2014, a grand jury indicted Rice on third-degree aggravated assault, with a possible jail sentence of three to five years and a fine of up to $15,000.[29] Six weeks after the incident, Rice married Palmer on March 28, 2014.[30] For the incident, Rice was suspended for the first two games of the 2014 NFL season on July 25, 2014. The criminal charges were later dropped after Rice agreed to undergo court-supervised counseling.[31] In a news conference announcing longer suspension lengths for future domestic violence incidents, NFL CommissionerRoger Goodell said that he "didn't get it right" in deciding Rice's punishment.[32]
In January 2015, the Baltimore Ravens settled the claim after Rice filed a formal grievance against the NFL for wrongful termination. Rice demanded $3.5 million based on the claim that the Ravens imposed a second punishment upon him by terminating his employment weeks after the NFL levied a two-game suspension.[33] Although the details of the settlement were not disclosed, it was estimated that he received most of his claim.[33] In 2016, he vowed to donate all of that season's salary to domestic violence charities if he were signed by a team, but he remained unsigned.[34]"
