Jabrill Peppers Placed On Exempt List
1 month agoThe NFL placed New England Patriots safety Jabrill Peppers (shoulder) on the commissioner's exempt list on Wednesday. Peppers may not practice or attend games while he's on the list. Peppers plead guilty on Monday after he was arrested last Saturday in Massachusetts on strangulation and drug-possession charges. The 29-year-old won't be available to the Patriots' defense for the foreseeable future. The former 25th overall pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2017 out of Michigan is in his third year with the Patriots and had 23 tackles (11 solo), an interception and two pass breakups in his four games played before being suspended due to off-the-field transgressions. New England's secondary will certainly be more vulnerable without Peppers, starting this Sunday against the Houston Texans and their explosive aerial assault.
