Per ESPN it said they reached deal, and it said he still is suspended 2 weeks, but only loses one week pay.
Thats crap. Why do we have to pay a player that isn't playing.

NFLPA says it will file a grievance against us if we deactivate him for the rest of the season, which sucks. So if this is looking more and more unlikely, lets just bench his @ss and let Charles, and Savage play in front of him.
Hes talking about deactivation, meaning he doesnt get payed. NFLPA will never let that fly. So, we dont deactivate him, but dont play him.
My opinion on this is that he shouldn't get payed for being suspended. I think 2 weeks suspension is enough. I hope he comes back and shoves it down the opposing teams throat and then breaks that record because he really is the best RB in Chiefs history (probably get attacked for saying that) even though it was only for a few years like Okoye. He still has a few years left but he would be much better suited on a team with a descent O line.

It starts with the Offensive line
He has a lot of talent IMO I dont no about being the greatest RB the chiefs have had. I mean the chiefs did have Marcus Allen maybe not at his peak but Allen to me is better then LJ. I was lucky to see his last couple of years. But LJ has got to learn to keep his mouth shut. Thats going to cause him a lot of trouble when and if he gets cut from the chiefs.
LJ must know where the bodies are buried....
What LJ did was stupid, but it has been blown way out of proportion. If the Chiefs suspend him or fine him more than one game check, the player's association will intervene and would win if/when the case goes to arbitration.
The only choice the Chiefs have is to cut LJ, which they don't want to do because it sends the message to the rest of the team that any player can force his way off the team simply by making some comments.
LJ will probably be back, but the real question might be whether he has the support of the other players on the team. After all, it would be naive to think LJ is the only player on the roster that shares his thoughts about Todd Haley's coaching pedigree.
LJ should'nt own that record. He's a crybaby and "needs to take off the diapers"
He had 2.7 ypc up to week 6 so in my opinion...hes washed up
