The report by Madden 23 coins Rob Maaddi at the Associated Press League sources indicated that there was a possibility that Madden NFL 23 was pushing for a minimum of a one-year suspension for Watson while Watson's attorney, Rusty Hardin, and Watson's legal team wereand not by accident -advocating for no suspension. Maaddi also said that the league might be open to a suspension of six to eight games to avoid appeals procedure.

It appears that Madden NFL 23 is known to have had a difficult time applying discipline to players who are accused of sexual assault. The first instance of this was the two-game suspension for ex- Ravens forward Ray Rice, who was captured on video punching and kicking his then-fiancée, injuring her and knocking her unconscious. The league was criticized for having to suspend Rice for only two weeks, and its reaction was to take the decision to suspend Rice indefinitely. After that, the Madden NFL 23 was able to establish an indefinite suspension of six games as the baseline for players who committed sexual assault and domestic violence.

But the league rarely adheres to that standard. In 2016. Giants kicker Josh Brown was suspended for one game in the wake of an incident of domestic violence against his former wife. It was later discovered the Giants knew of Brown's extensive history of domestic violence.

The list continues. Jameis Winston was suspended for three games for sexually attacking the Uber driver. Greg Hardy buy mut 23 coins allegedly attempted to strangle a woman and threw her onto a futon smothered with guns. The Madden NFL 23 diminished the initial suspension of 10 games to four games. It occurred prior to the time that Madden NFL 23 instituted the 6-game baseline, however Ben Roethlisberger served just a three-game suspension in 2010 after being credibly accused of assaulting a woman.
