5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: Two Patriots players find themselves accused of violent crimes. The

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: allegations come just a couple of weeks ahead of the

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: team's playoff push. There's wb'z's Kyle Shaffle.

8
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 2: Receivers Upon Diggs is accused of choking his personal chef

9
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: over a money disagreement, and d lyman Christian Barmore allegedly

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 2: threw his child's mother to the ground. The team says

11
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,720

00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: the story broke.

14
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: These aren't a surprise that today and yesterday this came out.

15
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: Diggs has been seen as a major leader in the

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: locker room, especially since the rest of the receivers are

17
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 2: so young. The NFL will sometimes place players accused of

18
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: serious misconduct on the exempt list, preventing them from playing.

19

20
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,360

21
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: even looked at that as I'm being an option.

22
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 3: I mean, if it.

23
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 4: Has to happen, then you know it's always next man up.

24
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: Dixonies the allegations, while Barbore's lawyer says is confident the

25
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 2: evidence will show no criminal conduct. Center Garrett Bradbury said

26
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 2: the news is a bigger distraction outside of the locker

27
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 2: room than in it. I penetrates more in y'all's world.

28

Speaker 4: the first fifteen years, along with a permanent revenue stream

39
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,240

44
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 4: far more lucrative than the seven hundred and fifty thousand

45
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 4: dollars one time payment that the Crafts initially offered the city.
