Of course, that pales in comparison to the personal toll of Ruggs’ staggeringly reckless behavior. Police said Ruggs was racing along at more than 150 mph and had a blood-alcohol content twice the legal limit when the crash occurred early Tuesday morning, which means the speedy receiver’s NFL career is likely over just as it was getting started. In a matter of days, the league was struck by a horrific tragedy involving one of its most promising players, a familiar farce from one of its most polarizing performers and a clear case of deception and irresponsibility tainting one of its biggest stars.īy far, the most devastating news came from the desert, where the Las Vegas Raiders - already dealing with the fallout from coach Jon Gruden’s forced exit over racist, homophobic and misogynistic emails - quickly cut second-year receiver Henry Ruggs III after his high-powered sports car rammed into the back of another vehicle, killing a woman in a fiery crash. No one spins things like the NFL, but not even its mighty PR machine can make this past week go away.
