While the Cowboys passed on re-signing Hardy for the 2016 season, another team may be looking to give him a chance, according to a report by Rand Getlin of NFL Media.

Hardy was suspended for the first four games of the 2015 season for violating the NFL’s personal-conduct policy in connection with a 2014 domestic-violence incident.
The move isn’t without P.R. risk, and the reaction locally and nationally to the news of the flirtation with Hardy could influence whether he’s signed.
There hasn’t been much public chatter involving teams and Hardy, who allegedly assaulted his former girlfriend in 2014. He was found guilty. The prosecutors also said Holder had reached a settlement with Hardy.
Hardy was convicted in a bench trial; however, Hardy appealed the conviction, and the charges were later dropped in February 2015. After spending last season with the Dallas Cowboys as a result of a one-year contract from back in March 2015, the veteran pass rusher then became an unrestricted free agent once again this offseason.

Greg Hardy could be headed back to the NFL. Topics included his anger management, temper management, domestic violence, and evaluation for ADHD. If he is able to get his emotions under control and just focus on football, Greg could turn Jacksonville into a serious playoff contender.
