The Dark Side of the NFL: When Heroes Become Villains
As I sat in my living room, watching the latest NFL game, I couldn’t help but think about the recent allegations against Brandon McManus, the kicker for the Washington Commanders. Two women, Jane Doe I and Jane Doe II, have come forward accusing McManus of sexual assault on a flight last year. The details of the allegations are disturbing, to say the least.
“The flight quickly turned into a party,” the lawsuit alleges, as McManus threw $100 bills at flight attendants in exchange for dancing inappropriately for him.
It’s hard to reconcile the image of McManus as a respected NFL player with the allegations of sexual assault. But as I delved deeper into the story, I realized that this is not an isolated incident. The NFL has a long history of players being accused of sexual misconduct, and it’s time we start taking action.
The NFL has a responsibility to create a safe environment for all.
The allegations against McManus are particularly disturbing because of the power dynamic at play. As a famous NFL player, McManus has a certain level of influence and authority, which he allegedly used to exploit the two women. It’s a stark reminder that even in the world of professional sports, where athletes are often idolized, there is a dark underbelly of misconduct.

The Jacksonville Jaguars, McManus’ former team, have also been accused of not doing enough to prevent the alleged assault.

It’s a stark reminder that the NFL has a responsibility to create a safe environment for all, not just the players.
As I reflect on the allegations against McManus, I am reminded of the importance of accountability. The NFL has a responsibility to take allegations of sexual misconduct seriously and to take action against players who engage in such behavior. It’s time for the NFL to take a stand and create a safe environment for all.
