Good points, I suspect the difference is Ajou and Kelly did not dispute their conduct was inapporopriate.

We don't know if Ajou will appeal...

Haven't you heard? Kelly says he's a changed man...the only trouble is there's no one else to verify it.
But he also stated recently that the nfl is still the dream..at 32 , having just missed a year due to injury and with all the baggage he entails he's obviously delusional.

Kelly got married in Feb. and they already have a child, I guess it remains to be seen if this event changes his behaviour.

People who have no moral compass always think they did nothing wrong. The guy is a creep and I wouldn't want him in my clubhouse or on my team regardless of how talented a player he is. I'd rather lose than have to play with douche bags.

I don't get the grousing about Elgersma. He was just drafted last year, why give up? Sometimes guys take years to come back. Tyrell Ford was gone a year, Dakoda Shepley was gone 5 years just for examples. He's a 24 year old QB who will be here eventually and everyone will be happy.

Vindicated!

Marino was outright kicked off a team, and out of the league.

There were No criminal charges, and no criminal offence of any kind.

The best thing about the timing is that he'll have an entire season to learn from Collaros, whose style is not that dissimilar to his own. He has a better arm now hopefully he can augment that by learning how to move about to avoid the rush as his footspeed isn't any better than Zac's. He's definitely a pocket passer.
The biggest factor in most qbs is the ability to read defenses hopefully learning from Zac will help

The $400k question, eh?  I'm pretty sure that, unlike "who went over SMS and by how much", we'll never know the answer to your question.  That info simply isn't made public, except in bits and pieces doused in speculation.

Probably but in recent years we're seeing other transparency. Neg list for example.

I'd settle for players salaries to be made public and how much is allocated to current year.

Kelly continues to say he did nothing wrong. Despite canned apologies when he was forced into it at the time.

JT19 says, Winnipeg is the only place he will play.

Heard that at the trade deadline. It was a mistake to sign him in the first place, imo. Chipman's been trying to get him since the Jets came back to Winnipeg, but the version of Toews that left the Blackhawks was never going to be a helpful asset.

Another L, and another key player with an injury. I hope Varsho's injury isn't long term.

Cursed season.
