New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said that if the domestic violations allegations against safety Jabril Peppers are true, Peppers has played his last game for the team, according to reports.

" . . . If what has been reported is true, he's (Peppers) gone," is what was reported that Kraft said during an appearance on "The Breakfast Club" morning show.

Peppers pleaded not guilty Monday in Quincy (Mass.) District Court after he was arrested on multiple charges that include strangulation and drug possession, per police in Braintree, Mass. Multiple reports indicated the alleged victim is his girlfriend.

The NFL placed Peppers, 29, on the commissioner's exempt list on Wednesday.

But Kraft also stressed the team would wait and confirm the facts of the case before taking any action.

" . . . Once he goes on the commissioner's exempt list, they do their independent checking. We're doing ours," Kraft said.

Peppers will continue to be paid while on the exempt list. He is in the first season of a three-year, $24 million contract.

He is in his eighth season after being drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the first round (25th overall) in 2017 from the University of Michigan. Peppers has also played with the New York Giants.
