If it was an ordinary white Joe Blow this wouldn't even have made the local news.

Let's say this had happened to Lyle or Trainer Monkey. Do you think CCN would have been all over it? Do you think it would even be covered at all?
Of course its because he's an NFL running back,"Matchmaker/Trainer gets jacked up by the police" is not exactly national news.
Now if one of my fighters got jacked up,that at least might make the local news. But even though Ive got some juice in the sport of boxing,me getting jacked up by the po po's isnt even making the newspaper byline
