26, 2023. (Thomas Shea-USA TODAY Sports) McManus’ move to the Packers came after the NFL said in September it did not find sufficient evidence to support claims that he sexually assaulted two women who were working as flight attendants on the Jacksonville Jaguars’ trip to London last year.
He signed with the Washington Commanders in March. When the allegations surfaced in the offseason, the Commanders cut him. The NFL considers the case closed, although it could be reopened if new evidence emerges.
