The 49ers took Lawrence Phillips back after all of his law troubles after he had a big year in the NFL Europe. The Bengals didn't blink about bringing back Chris Henry, and neither will the Titans worry about Pac Man when it's time for him to come back. He'll be back mark my words. If it helps NFL owners win and make money they'll take anybody.

4everfsu wrote:He still has to go thru a trial by the state of Va, no telling how much time he may get but the judge on Fox news said he could get twice the amount of time by the state. I will not shed a tear or lose any sleep if his career is over. He is lucky I am not the judge, I would have given his 60 months.Appearently, according to ESPN, after being charged Federally, he cannot be charged by the state of VA.
