The New York Giants released Josh Brown on Tuesday, roughly a week after the public release of documents that showed Brown admitting to physically beating his then wife in 2015.

“We believed we did the right thing at every juncture in our relationship with Josh,” team president John Mara said in a statement. “Our beliefs, our judgments and our decisions were misguided. We accept that responsibility.”

Mara added, “We hope that Josh will continue to dedicate himself to rehabilitation, and to becoming a better person and father. We will continue to support him in his efforts to continue counseling, and we hope that Josh and his family can find peace and a positive resolution.”

1. Good, the New York Giants made a good decision. When a spouse choses to raise their hand and strike

their spouse they have made a decision of which should have consequences.

4. no, they didn't. the allegations were well known

When they resigned him. Took a lot of pressure for them to finally act. The Giants and the NFL once again showed that they care nothing about domestic abuse.

5. No. They care if the perp is black (Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson). White DV perps get passes

6. sorry, they cover for abusers of any color

They gave Rice a slap on the wrist and pressured the local DA to not press charges. The NFL came down hard only after their cover up was exposed.

I'm a Giants fan and as soon as I heard about the abuse I wanted his ass gone.

3. Now get the f... outta our clubhouse.

Pity they didn't pay more attention to this matter when the former wife was getting kicked around her home...

7. His hometown is about 30 miles from here

This is the first I've heard of this. I guess being a local kept his name out of the papers here,
