Browns RB Quinshon Judkins was charged with misdemeanor domestic battery in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Details around Judkins’ arrest continue to emerge. On Sunday, Sergeant David Soika of the [COLOR=var(--color-primary-text)][COLOR=var(--color-link-text)]Fort Lauderdale Police Department Media Relations Unit

[/COLOR] shared that upon arriving at the scene where the reported crime took place, officers determined after speaking to the victim that a battery occurred, which led to the arrest of Judkins soon after. The rookie second-rounder remained in police custody overnight and is scheduled to have an initial hearing on Sunday. As ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio points out, Judkins is sure to face scrutiny from the NFL under the league’s Personal Conduct Policy, while Florio also notes that “the baseline punishment for a battery is six games,” which can vary based on other factors. Judkins has not yet signed his rookie deal, and will likely take less guaranteed money than he hoped for following his arrest, which could cause a trickle-down effect for the 29 other rookie second-rounders who have yet to sign their deal. Judkins was expected to compete for the Browns’ RB1 spot in training camp, and while he will still get a chance to do so, fantasy managers should remain open to the possibility of a suspension being handed down at some point this season. In any case, Jerome Ford rookie Dylan Sampson would both see slight boosts to their fantasy stocks if Judkins were to miss any time.[/COLOR]

And now it all starts making sense. The nfl are good at solving problems.

Judkins was a clean prospect. Crazy to assume that. More likely McVay simply wanted a TE here. Regardless, Judkins is a dumb ass for getting caught up like this. We'll see wgat details spill out regarding his fuck up.
Not crazy at all. That’s a big part of what that test is for. It weeds out the dummies, the low character guys, the guys that lacks heart. They are looking for high character leaders. It’s not likely that a guy who beats his girlfriend would pass the test. If you doubt it, just consider the drafting success since implementing it.

I think it's weird to assume that's why the Rams passed a running back that otherwise was a clean prospect with zero history of any run ins with the law. I really think the Rams wanted their TE as they tried more than once to get one high (ex. Kincaid, Bowers). Kinda doubt Judkins was a real target of theirs considering when they decided to go after a running back. Running backs with sketchy backgrounds don't go high in the 2nd round.

Yeah that's some freaky shit there. Guess they pissed off some voodoo woman when they moved from Cleveland to Baltimore over night :laugh1:
I saw one Browns fan on another site so fed up with the ownership and the leadership he wants the team to leave Cleveland again and never ever come back LOL

Yup, but honestly I'm not gonna blame them for an individual being a dumbass on their own even though its fun to :laugh1:
And just how many dumbasses do they have to draft/sign before it’s considered a trend and we start to wonder about their due diligence vs many other teams? Some teams have their WTFs but the Browns have made a science of it.

John Elway will not face charges related to the death of his longtime friend, business partner and former agent, Jeff Sperbeck, who died in April from injuries suffered when he fell off a golf cart being driven by the Hall of Fame quarterback.

The Riverside County (California) Sheriff's Office said in a statement Monday that no criminal charges will be filed at this time and the case will be documented as an accidental death.

"It's over," Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco told Denver TV station 9NEWS on Friday. "We've talked to everyone involved and we found nothing new. There was nothing criminal. It was what we've been saying all along that this was a tragic accident."

The sheriff's office told ESPN that, like other cases, "it can be reopened for re-examination if new evidence comes to light."

Sperbeck, 62, died after he fell from the golf cart and hit his head April 26 in La Quinta, California. Bianco previously told ESPN that Sperbeck had been standing on the back of the golf cart before he fell.

Cal Fire on Monday released heavily redacted audio of Elway's call to 911, but the call provided no further details.

The Riverside County Coroner's Bureau determined Sperbeck's death was caused by blunt force trauma and that it was an accident.

"I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken by the passing of my close friend, business partner and agent Jeff Sperbeck," Elway said in a statement after Sperbeck's death. "There are no words to truly express the profound sadness I feel with the sudden loss of someone who has meant so much to me.

"My heart and deepest sympathies go out to Jeff's wife, Cori; his children Carly, Sam and Jackson; and everyone who knew and loved him. Jeff will be deeply missed for the loyalty, wisdom, friendship and love he brought into my life and the lives of so many others."

Elway won two Super Bowls during a 16-year NFL career, all with the Denver Broncos. He later served as Broncos general manager and executive vice president and then transitioned to a consultant role until his contract expired in March 2023.

Sperbeck began managing Elway in 1990. He represented more than 100 NFL players during a three-decade career as an agent and business adviser.

Sperbeck helped manage Elway's extensive off-field business empire, which included restaurants, car dealerships and a winery; the two collaborated with winemaker Rob Mondavi Jr. in 2015 to co-found 7Cellars by John Elway.

Sperbeck also co-founded Sullivan & Sperbeck, a sports marketing firm that was acquired by Octagon in 2001. Sperbeck directed Octagon's football division from 2001 to 2009, when he started The NOVO Agency, a sports management firm where he served as CEO and represented dozens of current and retired NFL players and coaches. The agency merged with Rep1 Sports in 2018.

What the hell was he doing standing on the back of a golf cart.

Those things are not that safe.
