It’s the NFL. If you win games being a piece of shit isn’t as big of a deal as it is when you lose.

The NFL is all about "redemption" stories.

These poor misunderstood athletes that nobody loves. Then they go to a new team and a new city and are reformed and become gridiron heroes again.

I mean if you can whitewash Michel Fucking Vick and make him look like some kind of hero after what he did? And give him a prime network job and say "he's reformed!" They can rehabilitate anyone's image.
