The hearing for the charges, which is next month, has already been delayed twice as lawyers have sought more time to assess evidence.Authorities say they have visual evidence of Alvin Kamara placing his hand on the victim's chest, preventing him from entering an elevator. According to police, the victim pushed Kamara's hand away and Chris Lammons, a Kansas City Chiefs cornerback, hit the man in question.The man fell to the floor and the accused allegedly struck the victim's body, leaving him with fractures and injuries to the head, knees and arms.What will happen to Alvin Kamara?Divisional Round - Tampa Bay Buccaneers v New Orleans SaintsAs mentioned earlier, there's no timetable for a decision on Alvin Kamara's potential suspension, but the league could place him on the commissioner's exempt list.

Most notably Deshaun Watson's.Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley has been suspended for the entire 2022-23 season for gambling.
