NEW YORK (WFAN) — NFL commissioner Roger Goodell insisted Wednesday night that the league has made “tremendous progress” on the issue of domestic violence, but added there are complex issues at play.
Goodell’s comments during WFAN’s “Chalk Talk” show came as the NFL is facing a firestorm of controversy over the one-game suspension it handed Giants kicker Josh Brown earlier this season in connection with a May 2015 arrest.
In writings released by police in Washington last week, Brown admitted to physically abusing his wife. The Giants released him Tuesday.
