But if it were up to him AK or any Saint would get life. That man holds a big grudge against either the Saints or Sean Payton. We're about to find out which one it is now that he's in Denver.

6 games minimum.

Hopefully I’m wrong.

Man. That's overkill. They need to re-evaluate these policies.

Last player I remember being caught on camera punching out someone never played another down in the NFL … I think the NFL and owners take this kind of behavior very seriously as well they should. Actions have consequences … this was not a good look for Alvin and crew.

That very well be overkill, but a 6 game suspension is rarely served in full in the NFL. Based on past precedence, there will likely be an appeal and he MIGHT be off the field for 4 games.

Not advocating just saying how similar incident have been handled in the past. I would agree whatever penalties that are handed out by the NFL will be appealed and as they say “it is what it is”.

I understand that the NFL wants to maintain the integrity of the NFL but the NFL has none. Just the love of money and the need to protect the so called integrity of the shield. Was there integrity when the NFL was being sued for concussions and then they nailed us to the cross to make a statement that they were all about safety?

Nonetheless, players need to be held accountable for their actions. They are role models after all.

Big difference. The one was a case of domestic violence against a female by a single individual. The other was a case with possible indications of self-defense where the person of interest was the least involved of the four individuals that took part in the act.

4 games for a gang assault? And apparently, caught on camera bragging about a beatdown? Another big mistake was AK going after someone walking backward with his friends.

Sometimes you just gotta be the bigger man & walk away.

Man, I simply don't see the league going easy on Kamara with his upcoming suspension.

Doubt that will happen in this case, especially since AK played last season.
But 6 games or more I can see.

Wasn’t implying AK would not play again, if I recall correctly the player was suspended indefinitely, drop by his team. When reinstated he was never on another NFL roster.

Once it gets past the criminal portion of this event, you are correct on what level of sanction the NFL will be looking to impose. The “Optics” of AK and his friends actions are terrible and that will play a large part in the NFL’s response.
