Josh Brown: ‘I never struck my wife, and never would’

In wake of documents released last week revealing his history of domestic abuse, Giants kicker Josh Brown said in a statement Tuesday that he never struck his ex-wife, Molly.

The NFL has re-opened its investigation into domestic violence allegations against Brown, who served a one-game suspension to open the season stemming from a fourth-degree domestic violence charge in May 2015, which was dropped five days later. Police released personal journal entries in which Brown admitted to abusing his then-wife.

Brown was placed on the commissioner’s exempt list on Friday and is reportedly unlikely to play for the Giants again.
