So he may want to be careful about asking for a release from the Raiders as he has become a liability to team unity, a threat physically, and an embarrassment to the league. In this case, it might be difficult for him to be signed by another team that sees these problems and wants to protect their team from such a dissident

He also audio taped a phone conversation with Coach Gruden, then posted it on line. In California, he needed Gruden's permission to do so (two-party consent statute punishable by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per violation, by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year, or in the state prison, or by both that fine and imprisonment). It is unknown, but highly doubtful, that Gruden knew he was being taped, much less gave his approval.

I’d like to see the state prosecute him for it. But with his notoriety and that he spends more than $10k on clothing every month, to him that’s chump change. He is not the first player to walk this path. The latest one, Colin, is still looking for work in the game. And when he was stupid enough to try to blackmail the teams with the public introduction of coercion, he probably kicked any opportunity to ever play in the NFL again out the door.

Remember the first line in the player conduct rule:

It is a “privilege” to play in the NFL....

Iit is not a right. AB will find that out.
