Brandon McManus, the seasoned kicker who made waves on the field, faced a sudden turn of events off the turf. The Washington Commanders, just a short while after allegations surfaced, decided to part ways with McManus. It all came crashing down less than a week after accusations swirled around McManus, accusing him of inappropriate behavior towards two flight attendants during the NFL season of 2023.
The accusations painted a vivid picture of McManus's alleged actions on a flight to London with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Two flight attendants claimed that McManus made unwanted advances, "rubbing himself against them and grinding," and even attempted to kiss one of them. Brett R. Gallaway, McManus's attorney, vehemently refuted these claims, labeling them as "absolutely false." He emphasized that evidence contradicted the accusations, including discrepancies in the accusers' statements.
In response to the Commanders' decision to release McManus, Gallaway doubled down on his defense of the kicker. Despite disappointment over the team's action, Gallaway affirmed their determination to clear McManus's name. With confidence in their legal strategy, they aimed to vindicate McManus and eagerly anticipated his return to the field where he rightfully belonged.
McManus, a seasoned player with a rich history in the league, had showcased his talent with the Denver Broncos before joining the Jaguars. He played a significant role in the Broncos' Super Bowl victory in 2015 and maintained a commendable field goal conversion rate throughout his career. His departure from the Commanders marked a sudden twist in his journey, leaving fans and pundits alike speculating about his future in the NFL.
