UnknownJetFan Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Yes, he did, but no word back yet on if it will remain 4 games or be reduced a game or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Harper Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 IMHO not much chance of success due to aggravating circumstances but I’ve been wrong before. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets723 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Honestly it should be 4. I’m a big Herndon fan and hate the fact that he will be out since he has great chemistry with Sam but gotta send a message 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this were a NE TE it would be 1-2 games suspension and we all know that. Gronk when he dove on the back and neck of the opponent on the field even though he obviously was not drinking at the time could have crippled the guy. Did he even get suspended?. If he did it was like 1 game and should have been 4 or longer. But, the league has done everything to hand NE their 6 SBs including slapping them on the wrist every time they have been caught cheating all through the years of everyone of those title runs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Warfish Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 I don't support any suspension whatsoever for personal use of recreational drugs or alcohol. I do support, to the maximum possible, discipline and suspensions for drunk or drugged up drivers who put other peoples lives at risk. He did the crime, he can do the time. Next time don't be a dumbass life-threatening drunk driver. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want Herndon on the field its actually much more important that guys learn not to drive around drunk or high. Let's see if they knock it down a game or two, but I would not hold my breath and that's fine. Sure it sucks for the Jets as a fan, but drunk driving is one of the worst things you can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 The "aggravating circumstance", bumping the penalty from 2 to 4 games, was an injury. Funny... the police report said no injuries, I believe.The injury popped up days after it became known to the victims that the DUI was an NFL player. The "aggravating circumstance" is dubious at best. I hope the NFL decision makers can see this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping they reduce it to 2 games. I highly doubt the amount of games he's suspended for will affect his ability to learn that drinking & driving are a poor combo. I am more on board with community service, training, classes, fines, suspended drivers license etc than with a football suspension. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a fan of the NFL getting involved in punishing people for crimes. It's random, non judicial process. If he was convicted of a crime and sent to jail for 2 years, fine. If he got a slap on the wrist, fine. The NFL still suspends people for using marijuana but has no problem with a player taking pain killers and alcohol to mask their pain.

The Patriots Way So true. But is it a legit "aggravating circumstance" ? Nope. So they will use the pretense of the alleged injury to justify the 3rd and 4th week suspensions.
