I'm also leaning towards Rice's career being in danger. What if he takes a plea bargain - does Goodell let him come back and play with a domestic violence conviction during pink ribbon month? RB also might be the worst position to be an idiot in these days, the money is drying up and the players are likely considered a dime a dozen by GMs. By the time he gets back on the field the Ravens will have a very cheap 1000 yard rusher from the 3rd round of the draft like most teams are gunning for these days.
Also wondering why a behavior clause isn't standard on every NFL contract at this point. At least for felony charges.
