NFL expects decision on Jonathon Cooper's status before Week 7

The NFL is set to make a decision regarding Jonathon Cooper's roster status before Week 7. Cooper has been removed from the exempt list, which makes him eligible to play for the Denver Broncos this season while he awaits trial on multiple charges, including felony assault. This decision comes after his trial was postponed to March. The league's standard suspension for domestic violence cases is six games, but Cooper has already served that time while on the exempt list. His potential return is based on the circumstances of the legal process, which has sometimes allowed players to participate while awaiting trial.
