Former NFL coach Tony Dungy would be fine with signing ex-Baltimore Ravens and Rutgers running back Ray Rice, even with all the baggage and media attention he’d bring with him.

Here’s what Dungy said on Sunday’s “Football Night in America”:

“I would [pick up Rice] under one condition. Ray Rice made a terrible mistake, but he paid the penalty from the League and from the legal system. I would have to talk to him and say, ‘Have you learned from this?’ (I’d) look in his eye and see if he has learned from his mistake. Then I’d be okay to sign him. … You also have to weigh is he okay paying a penalty like everyone does and then moving on with his life?”
