Yesterday, it came out that no arrests would be made in Missouri WR Dorial Green-Beckham’s latest run in with the law. He was involved with some sort of burglary incident where his girlfriend alleged that he drug her by the neck. However, she later redacted that saying she didn’t remember texting any of that information.
Green-Beckham has had issues in the past with drugs and there have been calls to kick him off the team. Now in a statement, he admits that he has been foolish and needs help:
“First and most importantly, I take responsibly for my conduct and my mistakes,” it read. “Don’t blame my girlfriend or her friends for anything. I am not looking for sympathy. I thank those who have given me concern.
“I have been young and dumb. I want to be better. During my suspension I’m entering counseling. With help, I know I can be stronger emotionally and spiritually. My relationship with God, my family, friends, teammates and coaches are most important in my life, not football. It may not be possible to fix everything, but it won’t be for not trying.”
It looks more and more like the girl involved was intimidated into not following up with this. Otherwise, why does he need counseling after an incident where he wasn’t charged. Smarten up Dorial before it’s too late and you end up in jail.
