Aldon Smith turns up back in rehab after domestic violence on new fiancee

This should complete the updates on this situation. And likely completes the chances Aldon Smith had of ever being reinstated into the NFL.

The endlessly self destructive former All Pro pass rusher has been banned from the NFL since midway through the 2015 season for multiple violations of the league’s substance abuse policy. Only staying on the straight and narrow was going to convince the commissioner to reinstate him. He’s been anything but.

Just when you start to think it’s been long enough between incidents that the commissioner would consider Smith ready to return to start the 2-year contract he signed with the Raiders in the 2016 offseason, he shows up in a video or in a police report.
