Sounds like he'll get a second chance at resuming his promising NFL career and making millions more importantly.
This was too much of a close call and he won't get another chance in today's NFL, especially at a position that is easily replaceable.
Word of advice (and I admittingly know nothing about the details of his relationship): seek a less high maintenance, lower profile, and low drama woman. One that won't push your buttons. I'm not advocating domestic violence in any way. They are out there and some of them are very good-looking as well.
