Ray Rice And Janay Rice: With Forgiveness, Can Ray Rice Rebuild NFL Career? Which Team Should Domestic Abuse RB To Roster?
Ray Rice is back and ready to re-enter the NFL, but which team will take a huge risk and add the RB, who has seen his career ruined by his domestic abuse case, to their roster? Rice was one of the biggest stars in the NFL, but when a video of his assault on his then-wife-to-be Janay Rice went viral, the Baltimore Ravens wanted nothing to do with him. But he has been given a second chance: Janay has forgiven him and continued to offer her support for her husband, and now he's hoping to resurrect his career. The question is can he rebuild his career, and what team should take a chance and sign him?
Several unnamed stars have added their support, saying that he does deserve a second chance. One fellow star added "everyone deserves a second chance."
Another star explained: "I know Ray and his wife. I believe they've forgiven each other. I would accept him, and I think that my teammates would accept him."
The final unnamed player — who played with Rice — insisted, "He seems very remorseful. As much as I am against domestic violence, I do believe in second chances. No more chances after that, though."
But will any team take the risk and offer him a contract?
Janay didn't want his career to suffer. She explained, "I was extremely surprised and angry that the Ravens released him because they know him. They were our family, but I felt like the Ravens completely disregarded the past six years with him. Anytime the Ravens needed someone for a community event, Ray was their man."
Now Rice has the backing of his wife, the NFL and his fellow players, but which team will give him the ultimate stamp of approval, offering him a place on their roster?
