 in restitution to the victim for past medical expenses, as well as complete 30 hours of community service. Kamara was also handed an additional fine of $500 (£392) and has issued a public written apology. It was confirmed on Friday by the NFL that Kamara has been suspended for the first three games of the Saints' 2023 regular season. That means he will miss the games against the Tennessee Titans, Carolina Panthers, and the Green Bay Packers. Kamara, the No.67 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, will be eligible to return in Week Four against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He will also be able to take part in pre-season games for the Saints over the next month, but will not be eligible for the start of the NFL season. Prior to the news of Kamara's suspension by the NFL, he spoke for the first time about the incident in February last year. Kamara took responsibility for his actions and apologised to his family, the NFL and the Saints. "It's a tough ordeal to be in," Kamara told ESPN. "You know, I never want to be involved in something where someone gets hurt or severely injured or anything. 'Poor judgment on my end, definitely a bad decision, but I'm a man. Everything I've ever done in my life, I've stood on. And I can take accountability for it and I can say when I'm wrong and I was completely wrong." A must for every NFL fanatic.
