Agreed, but the statement says nothing about DV. That’s very disappointing.

The fact that the Stamps lack the moral courage to say WHY they're cutting him disgusts me, to be quite frank. This isn't just another roster move, this is a move to release a "man" accused of hitting his partner in the face with a fucking suitcase. Fucking say something, Dave... Shameful.

Sad the team, league and CFLPA refuse to speak out against these issues, yet they'll ram down our throats during the season how much they do to support women. I'm tired of women being used as a PR piece by this league.

The fact that he hasn't even been suspended by the league, leaving him free to sign with any other team, is utterly maddening. Why does stuff like this keep happening? Because the league does FUCK ALL to prevent it. Actions have consequences, and it's time that the league takes that approach. 🤬

They SAY they are a zero tolerance organization but as you say, their actions disprove that.

Ideally, the league would have suspended him already. But they're too busy twiddling their thumbs to do a damned thing about a relatively recognizable name in their league committing an act of domestic violence that reflects poorly on the league as a whole. Want to protect the brand? Do SOMETHING! 🤬

Just waiting for people to forget it ever happened. It’s what they do.
