Seattle Seahawks cornerback Quinton Dunbar is removed from the list of exempt commissioners, a source told ESPN, and confirms a NFL Network report.
The move is expected to be official Sunday. Dunbar’s removal from the released list allows him to rejoin the Seahawks at the teams headquarters, which he expects to do as early as Sunday. Dunbar could still face an NFL suspension.
On Friday, prosecutors from Broward (Florida) refused to file criminal charges against Dunbar in a robbery case because of insufficient evidence.
According to the original arrest warrant in May, New York Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker and Dunbar were accused of stealing money and watches while armed with semi-automatic firearms. The warning stated that Baker intentionally threatened victims with a firearm.
Baker will be prosecuted on four counts of robbery with a firearm, Broward State Attorney Mike Satz announced Friday.
Dunbar was placed on the list of exempt commissioners at the start of training camp.
The Seahawks beat Dunbar for a pick in the fifth round in a trade deal with Washington in March. Dunbar is scheduled to make $ 3.25 million in base salary with another $ 250,000 available in pro-game bonus bonuses in the final year of his contract, none of which is guaranteed.
