Looks like Vernon will be in a lineup tomorrow.  

Kinda crazy he would be in a lineup, because she clearly knows who she is targeting and has access to thousands of pics of Big Vern....  Seems like a waste of time.  Regardless of if he did it or not, she will point him out.  Let's just hope there is video one way or the other

Thank goodness we went out and got Poe

To any future Panthers players who may have this type of thought:

"YES I'm rich so now I can be KING of the night clubs and surround myself with gold digging women with drug problems!"

PLEASE STOP YOU FUKING MORONS!

I was gonna point out the same thing. I don't know how they think a lineup will be fair. Can they find enough men that also look like NFL players? Her lawyer sounds like a jerk too, wanting more than this misdemeanor charge per WBTV who spoke with the lady's lawyer. http://www.wbtv.com/story/38722270/woman-says-panthers-player-threw-drink-pushed-her-at-tx-club

Damn Rae, had you just gotten a thousand yards it be all wood

There should be footage which should resolve this quickly. However, I'm hoping this is really clear.

If he pushed her then he's gone, no excuse for assaulting someone, regardless of gender and hurt pride.

If he's trying to move away from her/around her and she flops, because let's face it, there are some scumbags out there looking for a payday, then let's hope he's cleared.

Fine margins with grainy footage.

Well at least he can push somebody around.

He gone.  Perfect time for new ownership to take a stand.

Typical millennial response.  Guilty until prove innocent.

Not sure how you guys think we can run an NFL franchise if we get rid of every player that commits or allegedly commits a misdemeanor assault.

Ppl are so caught up in the headlines, without any real information.  Just wait for the real information.

Grown men don’t need handlers. They need consequences for bad behavior. And they need to know that games will take place on sundays whether they are on the field or not.

The term "grown man" doesn't really apply to all of these guys, and to some in only the loosest possible sense.

Doesn't sound like something that would threaten his roster spot, but if video comes out of a 330 pound man pushing a woman for any reason other than she's coming at him with a chainsaw, that won't be good. Definitely puts him on thin ice going forward though.
