Greg Hardy was one of the NFL's most polarizing players in 2015, with his signing by the Dallas Cowboys largely condemned after his well-publicized domestic violence case.
That included a four-game suspension to start the season after it was reduced from 10 games on appeal.
In a new interview with ESPN, Hardy - who is currently a free agent - maintains his innocence, going so far as to claim he's never laid a hand on a woman.
"I've never put my hand on ANY women, ... In my whole entire life, No, Sir," Hardy told interviewer Adam Schefter in an excerpt provided by ESPN.
