No speedy trial could also mean they are working on a settlement, no? Then that part is over, and the league makes a suspension decision. I would think that is what is probably happening here. Why else waive your right to a speedy trial. Settle with plaintiff. Then take the Commissioner's suspension. Then move forward. Best case for Judkins and the Browns at this point.

A criminal trial has nothing to do with a monetary settlement with the plaintiff. That's a civil trial. In a criminal case you would have to reach a plea deal with the prosecutor that would lessen the charges or have the charges dropped outright.

Thank you posting all that. "Something may (or may not) be happening over an undisclosed period of time" is what I got out of it.

So now there may be some evidence (circumstantial or not) that's counter to the allegation?

good news - he'll still be suspended, but at least not for as long
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

Excellent news!!! Now I have a question. Why should he be suspended for an ALLEDGED incident with no proof? IMO, he shouldn't be suspended at all.

Agree. Charges dropped, video evidence contradicting the complainant?

no suspension would be very welcomed. Don't know why, but I'm still expecting one

Davenport was FOS before the case was dropped. Let's hope the law of averages means he will be right about Judkins not being suspended.

Don’t think he should be suspended but NFL seems to over-react at times Video evidence she was not injured when she claimed she was is very favorable for Judkins. I don't know where the NFL has actually overreacted in cases like this. I still have no idea what the NFL will do but it's pretty hard to dispute video evidence. At least for most people.

According to the court and video footage there wasn't any "domestic violence issues".

Exactly, so there should be no punishment or suspension handed down from the NFL.

https://brownswire.usatoday.com/sto...quinshon-judkins-no-charges/85665742007/NFL insider Jordan Schultz then added that while he has been told that Judkins will return to the team and that it "should likely happen in the near future." This does not mean that the Browns or the NFL couldn't suspend Judkins; the issue is, however, that Judkins is currently not under contract. We'll see when the contract comes down the line, and when the NFL concludes their investigation of Judkins and formalizes any punishment. After missing all of training camp up to this point, it is inconclusive how soon the Browns will have the former Ohio State running back ready to go with just one more preseason game left after Saturday's matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles (that Judkins will not play in at this point).

According to the court and video footage there wasn't any "domestic violence issues". If the above is true, what the heck is the hold up..?
It doesn't sound as if the Browns or the NFL are convinced that there are "NO domestic violence issues"..!
If nothing happened..why the hold up to get Judkins signed to a contract and practicing with the team.
Makes me wonder if something else turned up...

If something happened then why did the prosecutor drop the case based on video evidence that she was not injured well after the alleged incident? It seems you are asking the wrong questions. I think all the Browns are waiting for is the all clear signal from the NFL. As of now the NFL hasn't said a word about what they are or are not "convinced" of. Do you have anything that might suggest otherwise?
I didn't think so.

Cleveland Browns may be lacking confidence in RB room after tweet this morning Story by The Sporting News https://sports.yahoo.com/article/cl...idence-144238295.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall Greg Newland August 21, 2025 at 10:42 AM EDT Cleveland Browns may be lacking confidence in RB room after tweet this morning originally appeared on The Sporting News Earlier this morning, Dianna Russini sent out a tweet that three teams, including the Cleveland Browns, were making calls in search of running back additions. Three weeks ago, this would have made sense to me. After letting Nick Chubb walk away, there were some serious questions about the depth of this position. Dianna Russini @DMRussini Sources: Teams making calls in search of running back additions include the Saints, Browns and Chiefs. 9:03 AM · Aug 21, 2025 But now this raises a lot of questions. Is there a lack of faith in Jerome Ford? Does Andrew Berry not think they will be able to get a deal done with Quinshon Judkins before the start of the season? Or is this just Berry doing his due diligence on the position with a low likelihood of anything happening? Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter Though Cleveland second-round pick Quinshon Judkins will not face any charges, he and the Browns still have been unable to reach a deal and may not until the end of any NFL investigation. As we are now less than a week before NFL rosters must be cut down to 53 from 90, there will be a lot of trade activity around the NFL, but it’s usually involving players at the bottom of the depth chart and late-round picks. Seeing the Browns are inquiring about running backs today still doesn't add up. With Judkins (who remains unsigned) and Dylan Sampson from the draft and Ahmani Marshall looking strong in the preseason, it felt like Berry was going to have a tough decision on who to cut (between Marshall and Pierre Strong Jr). If the Browns added a running back at this point via trade, they would be looking at cutting both Strong and Marshall, and would need to carry four running backs into the regular season, with Ford restructuring his deal in May that all but locks him to the roster in 2025. Remember, the Browns are always making phone calls and are always active in monitoring trade values, so I would say that is all this is, and don’t expect them to make an addition at running back before the start of the season.

Maybe GM Berry and the Browns simply misjudged the character of Judkins.

At this point the hold out is not about legal issues or suspension it is about the contract. Is it wanting a fully guaranteed contract? Are the Browns unwilling after his legal issue to give him a fully guaranteed contract? Maybe he does not want to sign with the Browns for less money than Ohio gave him last year? Either way this contract needs to get resolved and the team can move forward. It is getting ridiculous.

Drama drama drama then end it with: Remember, the Browns are always making phone calls and are always active in monitoring trade values, so I would say that is all this is, and don’t expect them to make an addition at running back before the start of the season.

Exactly. I don't recall anyone saying or reading about character issues with Judkins. The incident in July, to my knowledge, was the first and only issue. Why do some people on this board fabricate things?
