Football star is a person of interest in a violent murder case.

As a teacher in junior high school told me once about my outrageous antics....." Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a problem.".........The NFL has a problem.........personally?..... I'm getting tired of the problem.

    The Cowboys’ 2021 second-round pick was reportedly seen on video footage captured by KDFW-TV in the death of 20-year-old Cameron Ray on March 18. The cornerback has not been officially identified.

    Ray was fatally shot after getting into an altercation with a group. He was shot as he was heading to his car.

    Joseph is suspected to be involved with the group based on an individual wearing a “YKDV” necklace, which is in reference to Joseph’s rap name “YKDV Bossman Fat.” None of the group members have been officially identified by police, though.

    Eh it’s not just an NFL problem it’s a just a problem period.

    A lot of these kids are from the hood and can’t get away from the stupid stuff even after getting a once in a lifetime opportunity, it is what it is. If this young man is jammed up and loses his career another kid will come along and take his place.

    His attorney says he was a passenger in the vehicle from which shots were fired but was not the shooter. Perhaps we should wait before jumping to any conclusions about this guy other than he clearly needs to make better choices regarding companions.

    In the United States, by the age of 23, nearly half of all black males and 40% of all white males, have been arrested. The NFL is actually well ahead (in a good way) of that number.

    I agree that it's a people problem. I'm sure the percentages are relatively in line with the general population. And when you combine often difficult upbringings with sudden wealth, you can have problems too.

    That is true but to be fair young black males who are fortunate enough to make the NFL ought to have much greater odds at avoiding arrest in the first place.

    Bears WR Byron Pringle arrested after allegedly doing donuts with child in car

    https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-bears-wr-byron-pringle-arrested-after-allegedly-doing-donuts-with-son-in-car-183514377.html

    Pringle's Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, a car that costs upward of $60,000 if purchased new, allegedly emerged from the cloud of smoke. Bloom approached Pringle, who allegedly became verbally confrontational and wouldn't listen to commands. According to the report, there was an adult man in the passenger seat and "and a male juvenile child in the left rear seat." The report did not reveal the identity of either the passenger or child or their relationship with Pringle.

    Pringle arrested and booked for reckless driving and driving with a suspended license.
