Obviously that helps, but it didn’t help Kareem Hunt, did it?
When they drafted him, he was a nobody. Just another short, fast guy with fairly low expectations. They gave him a shot despite his past.
I don’t think many teams would cut a player instantly when he wasn’t even charged with a crime. I also think they did a lot to protect his public image. I don’t believe he was the world’s greatest teammate by any stretch, but they didn’t allow any of it to escape the locker room.
