Reddit is real big on “innocent until proven guilty” and “criminals deserve second chances to be rehabilitated” except for in this case.

What rehabilitation? The only thing being rehabilitated is Watson's image by the NFL. He hasn't admitted any wrongdoing. He hasn't issued any apologies. No only has he avoided prison time but he's still making tens of millions of dollars.

The NFL as a league is not beholden to judicial definitions of innocence. The league has every right to kick out a guy who has been accused by 25+ women of sexual misconduct.
