Innocent until proven guilty?  Doesn't the NFL usually wait until the legal process plays out before suspending a player?  Maybe there's ore there than we know.

It's not a suspension as we know it.

 

Commissioner Discipline
 
Section 5
Commissioner Exempt

Players who are placed by the Commissioner on the Exempt list prior to the determination of discipline and any appeal therefrom under the Personal Conduct Policy will be paid while on the Commissioner Exempt list and credited for the regular and post-season games missed against any suspension ultimately imposed. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if such a suspension is ultimately imposed, the player must promptly return and shall have no further right to any salary for the games for which he was paid while on the Commissioner Exempt list that were credited to the suspension (i.e., for a number of games no greater than the length of the suspension).

Ross is due back in court for a diversion hearing on Dec. 4.
