Ray Rice had a press conference earlier today with his wife Janay. It was his first public comments since the incident in an Atlantic City hotel where we see the security camera footage of him dragging her out of an elevator after knocking her out.
The press conference was strange and even included a statement from Janay apologizing for her role in the incident. Ray will avoid any jail time for the assault and the couple is providing a united front. Now eyes are on the Ravens and the NFL to see if they will issue any punishment for this.
His line of “Failure is not getting knocked down. It’s not getting up.” was particularly bad.
Janay Rice says she deeply regrets the role that she played the night of the incident.
