The NFL has placed Houston Texans safety Jimmie Ward on the Commissioner Exempt List following multiple arrests, including charges related to domestic violence and substance abuse. Reports indicate that Ward has been accused of a crystal meth-fueled assault against the mother of his child, leading to a civil lawsuit seeking $20 million. While on the exempt list, Ward is prohibited from practicing or playing. His situation has drawn significant attention, particularly as the Texans face ongoing challenges within their roster.
