Guice fell from a first-round draft projection to the 59th pick of the 2018 draft after there was uncertainty surrounding his character. Guice has not seen a lot of snaps on the Redskins due to a torn ACL, meniscus, and medial collateral ligament.

Guice’s attorney, Peter Greenspun, released an angry statement following his arrest Friday, “The failure to fully investigate allegations of events, which allegedly took place months ago, is inexplicable. Derrius will defend these charges in court, where a full vetting of allegations will take place, in contract to actions by local law enforcement and the Washington Football Team that assumed the worst, directly contradicting every sense of fairness and due process.”

Greenspun elaborated on the incompetence of the Sherriff’s office, “Unfortunately, the investigators did not seek a statement or any input from Derrius before the warrants were issued… The failure to fully investigate allegations of events, which allegedly took place months ago, is inexplicable.”
