SteelKing728 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Will the Vikings consider moving on from Phillips after the 2024 season? His suspension isn't football related, of course, but I wonder if the team would want to move in a different direction anyways? Personally, I don't see it happening. Curious what you guys think though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does it again, then all bets are off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 Unless Philips wants to leave in order to take an OC job where he will call plays, I don’t see him leaving any time soon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth would an organization punish their business for an off business hours action of an employee? Losing 3 weeks of pay is a significant punishment. Not to mention fines, careless driving - alcohol related conviction and loss of driving privileges. He deserves all of it, imo. He did the crime and now he’s paying his dues. No one was hurt, thank goodness. Hopefully lesson learned. Edited April 2 by marshpit23 Not to…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a Minnesota resident, there would be little difference where the driver did not challenge the administrative license revocation within the 30 day deadline, since then the alcohol-related incident becomes permanent on the drivers license record - for just about every purpose, including insurance rates and enhancement of future criminal charges and license revocations. For a Minnesota first timer, the drivers license can be reinstated sooner with a plea to DWI (rather than Careless Driving). Some other states may not count a prior alcohol-related administrative license revocation the same as a criminal DWI like Minnesota does, however. Careless Driving may look better to some, on a criminal background check, than a DWI. Maybe the alcohol related portion isn’t pertinent to Wes!?
