Remember when Ezekiel Elliott decided to pull down a woman’s shirt during a St. Patrick’s Day parade a few months back?
Well, she and the Dallas Cowboys running back are back in the news over it.
Elliott, who is appealing his six-game NFL suspension was recently cross-examined during his hearing where prosecutors brought up the groping incident.
Ezekiel Elliott said there’s no way the woman could have been mad at him over exposing her breasts in public.
How does he know? Because they totally had sex after it.
The NFL referenced that incident in it’s domestic violence investigation report — and considered it when meteing out Zeke’s 6 game suspension.
But Elliott says the NFL didn’t have all the facts — insisting the woman is a friend and he believes he had “consent” to grab her shirt because she “wanted” him to.
Elliott testified that she didn’t give him explicit permission before the incident but he found out later she was okay with it.
When asked during the hearing if that’s what he thinks “consent” means — Elliott replied, “I mean, I think consensual to me means it’s wanted. I mean it’s okay.”
Elliott says the two went home and had sex after the parade — and again at a later date — which proves she didn’t feel he committed any wrongdoing.
Try using that logic on your high school principal after you get caught getting a hand job in the Math building staircase.
Doesn’t work.
Trust me.
