Nah, you said it yourself you think he had "Some role in it".

You don't employ people who are involved with a murder.

And by releasing him i`m sure there is language in the contract where they save themselves a lot of money. He isn't a 40m investment at this point.

And definitely innocent until proven guilty, that's why he isn't being sentenced. But an employer isn't the court of law.

Listening to these media outlets it looked like the charge was going to be obstruction of justice, which meant (from my understanding I could be completely wrong here) he had part in the cover up of the murder but no actions in the actual murder itself.

The Falcons atleast waited until Vick was all but sentenced to prison before cutting ties, the Patriots look like they are just trying to avoid bad press more than anything. Even in Kobe's case his employers were willing to work with him and his legal issues, in both cases their bosses waited for some sort of conviction. Pro sports is a weird dynamic though with what is tolerated from a legal stand point.

Very well may be.

We`ll see what he is charged with. But I can't blame a team for cutting a man who is somehow involved in a murder.

Some things are more important than having a good TE

If its only obstruction and not murder I wouldn't mind the 49ers looking at him in a couple of years

Vick was dogfighting and Kobe was sexual assault.

This is murder, and there are already a ton of facts out there that make Hernandez look really bad.

And now all the media outlets seem to say "expect the worse".

He really aint though, dude had 483 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Kyle Rudolph
Vernon Davis
Jimmy Graham
Tony Gonzalez
Jason Witten
Greg Olsen
Heath Miller

All better players

my dude just stop. Greg Olsen? Heath Miller? Aaron Hernandez is without a question a top 5 TE based on talent alone, his numbers are ehh cause he plays behind the best TE in football

Man the Pats are done this year. They got no weapons on offense. lol@Amendola being your biggest threat.

Along with gronkowski being uncertain and lets not forget they lost brandon lloyd who almost had 1000 yards last year. Their top 4 receivers are gone, with gronkowski veing uncertain.

I'm sure he was on a tight leash given other shyt he's done before. The pats were probably on a zero tolerance policy with him.

i mean he did shoot a dude a couple of months ago who ended up losing vision in his right eye.

Still confused as to why charges and lawsuit was thrown out.

:beli: probably made some calls.

Pats also expected to pursue signing bonus and salary cap relief, but that wasnt main decision in release. Didn't want him representing team


shiit, they want all that money back
