I can’t see that. I don’t think NFL would set an example that a verbal threat = a full year suspension. They would have to enforce that way too often and too many other things that players have done in the past few years that resulted in no action would be seen as harsher offenses than a verbal threat.
Hunt is the best example I can think of this. If he was only suspended 8 games after being caught on video physically kicking a woman, Hill being suspended an entire season for a verbal threat would be seen as way too off in punishment fitting its corresponding crime.
