It looks like New England Patriots<\/strong><\/a> safety Jabrill Peppers might be sticking around after all.<\/p>\n

The veteran safety was in court this week thanks to the alleged charges of assault and battery against a woman at his Braintree, apartment from last fall.\u00a0 There was a lot riding on this, as the outcome of the case potentially left his football career with the Patriots hanging in the balance.<\/p>\n

Patriots owner Robert Kraft said following the charges last fall that if they’re true, “he’s gone.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/a> Kraft said at the time that he’d let the investigation and his case play out in court before the team made any hard decisions when it came to Peppers’ future.<\/p>\n

However, according to the Associated Press, it took less than 30 minutes for the jury to rule in his favor<\/strong><\/a>, acquitting the 29-year-old of the charges.<\/p>\n

Peppers testified again on his own behalf on Friday, maintaining his innocence, even telling the court that he followed advice he was given as a rookie when it came to dealing with a woman who was “acting erratic.”<\/p>\n

He grabbed his phone, and hit record.<\/p>\n

That was the point that he made, and it sounds like it might have contributed to the outcome of his case.<\/p>\n

“When I was a rookie in the league, we had a lot of rookie meetings, and one of the meetings was on if a woman, if you find yourself in a situation where a woman is acting, you know, kind of erratic, pull your phone and record because that might be, you know, what saves you,” he said on the stand via WCVB.com<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The jury clearly sat down and weighed the evidence in the case, and Peppers came out on the side he was certainly hoping for.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Peppers will have to stay away from any further trouble as he serves out four months with probation and drug tests for the cocaine charge after he reportedly admitted to being in possession of the narcotic during the trial.\u00a0 The AP reports that charge will reportedly be dismissed if he completes it successfully.<\/p>\n

For a team with so many questions heading into the offseason, this is certainly positive news, especially for someone who is considered to be a leader on New England’s defense.<\/p>\n

Either way, Peppers with his case finally in the rearview, he’ll now get to turn the page toward getting ready for the 2025 NFL season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
