Today Jets cornerback who most likely will be a future hall of famer was charged for fellony. According to NFL.com, this past Sunday morning Revis was spotted by a 20 year old man walking down the street. The man asked, "Are you Darrelle Revis"? Revis replied yes and then the man took out his phone and starting recording him talking to Revis. (Probably because Revis is famous and the man wanted it for social media). He followed Revis and videoed him. Revis apparently snatched his phone and tried to delete the video. Another man nearby saw this and ran over to try to help the man recover his phone like it was a loose ball off a fumble. Revis then chucked the phone into the street. Apparently then they all began smack talking each other until Revis punched both of them unconscious. When they woke up the men talked to the police about what happened. Revis was charged today and this will cause crazy things to start happening. He was already treading on thin ice with the Jets but this sets him over the edge...the team will likely release him.
Revis' last season was his worst. "Revis Island" was gone. Revis got beat deep every play and couldn't be a lockdown corner like usual. His age is catching up with him. Revis also is being paid so much, he has a 15 million dollar cap hit on the Jets team. Since the Jets have found out about what he has done, he is likely done with the Jets. I'm sure they will release him. This could be it for Revis in the NFL. He will maybe be suspended for that and that would also give the Jets yet another season to call quits on him. If the Jets cut him, I don't think another team will get him due to his legal mess, his old age, and his huge money hit on whatever team he plays for. Revis will likely linger in free agency and then retire. Hopefully this stunt doesn't mess up his Hall of Fame chances but we may have seen the last of Darrelle Revis and for sure the last of Revis Island.
Thanks for reading! :)
