Buzbee is about to clean up off these chicks smh. I wonder if at least one will come out against the lawyer.. I see that possibly happening
The pressure had to have come from the league as he was getting put on the Exempt List if he didn’t settle those cases before season started. He’s now put himself in a bind though as theoretically could suspend him again if any new cases come to light. That’s why it wouldn’t surprise me if the league still took their time with their decision and put him on the list to start the season.

Just heard Cowherd say the same thing.
Im thinking at best he plays 3 or 4 games. Most likely out for the year. However, that protects them from going after his money in 2023 as the money will be way more.
certainly possible the NFL put some pressure on him and his team to settle, maybe even used it as a bargaining chip to reduce whatever suspension they will hand him
The league isn‘t trying to end up with another Ray Rice situation where more evidence/accusers come out after the punishment is levied and makes them look worse PR wise.
he got them paid too, why would they come out against him?
Nahhh they probably threatened to put him on the Exempt List if he didn’t, which would make them take even more time making their decision.
I have no doubt this was a case where the league reached out to relevant parties and advised them that a punishment was coming by the time camp opens, and it would be in their best interest to start getting this wrapped up before then.
It would be tough to see him getting suspended again if new cases came out, though. It would need to be either another tidal wave of accusations, or incidents proven to have happened after the initial accusations came out, so it could be established to be a completely separate set of incidents. Otherwise, the NFLPA would likely roadblock this shyt in the most inconvenient way possible.

Being in a recommendation system.
A lot of these women just want money and this nikka cheap as fukk all he had to do was pay them when they first came out and it would all be dead, all these women see him as an easy lick and if he don't pay up his ass out a job win win for them.
The league isn‘t trying to take that chance though nor should they and deal with another PR hit, so it wouldn’t surprise me if they took their time before rendering a final suspension amount.

Going that route kinda helps his innocence argument in a way. he was willin to fight it all da way to da end until it just didnt make sense financially or business wise to do so.
keep in mind all da criminal shyt got dismissed a while ago, so he was probably willin to do the civil shyt until he was pressured to do otherwise
Agreed. I think that's why they put the word out that he needs to do whatever he was going to do sooner than later, so they can at least say they made their decision based off of some sort of result from all of this.
I do think he's guilty of being a deviant perv using IG women and others to get some p*ssy under the guise of getting a "massage"
nikka thinks people are dumb.
Anyways, minus well finish settling and get your suspension from Roger.
He might as well settle all the cases and move on from all of this. He got his fully guaranteed deal. Throw them a couple dollars and keep it moving. The more this drags out, the worse the league punishment will be.
