Good thing we got that Jamal Adams guy!SoulfishHawk":2593txlb said:Just heard that too. That's a big blow. Someone saying that Pete and John should have seen this coming in 3....2....1...….

Doesn't matter what the end result of Dunbar's legal matters are, as we found out with Reed they can suspend a player that wasn't even arrested or convicted of anything.
All the exempt status tells us is that the league sees this as a serious enough offense to not even wait for the legal proceedings to conclude, they're going to not let him practice or play immediately.
Now the ball's in the John and Pete's court to either pay him for sitting all year, or cut him. My guess? Dunbar's going to get cut. Why pay a guy for a year or two when you can free up his salary to use elsewhere.
