Guilty Or Innocent? Perception Is All That Matters In The NFL

The Houston Texans cut undrafted free agent defensive tackle Brandon Ivory on Thursday, one day after he was arrested and charged with burglary. The team said they would gather all facts and relevant information, and they moved fast to decide Ivory’s fate after the charge.

As expected Ivory maintains his innocence, as expressed through a quote from his agent, via Tania Ganguli of ESPN.com.

“I spoke to Brandon he is not guilty and his name will be cleared of all charges,” Ivory’s agent, Jeff Guerriero, said in a text message Wednesday.

This piece is not about whether or not I believe Ivory is guilty, because I have no relevant facts whatsoever.
