Giants owner John Mara admitted that he knew Josh Brown was beating his wife well before these documents came out about him admitting it.
Why did they re-sign him?
According to Mara, I guess he wasn’t beating her enough.
Giants owner John Mara on Josh Brown: "He admitted to us he'd abused his wife in the past. What's a little unclear is the extent of that."

Eli Apple is a corner on the Giants, but his mom Annie is very outspoken on social media and had this to say on Twitter.
As a domestic violence survivor, reading these Mara comments makes me sad, angry and completely baffled. He just doesn't get it. This is sad

It's one thing to like someone or even a team. It's a whole other thing to cosign the bullsh*t. Don't cosign the bull.

Some fans on Twitter in a polite (and some not so polite) way mentioned that this could make things uncomfortable for her son, but Mrs. Apple didn’t back down from his stance.
And Molly Brown is somebody's daughter, sister, mother; more importantly a human. It's not about my son's boss. It's about Molly's suffering https://t.co/wiYfvDpCXB

Nothing she is saying is wrong, but it could put her son in a weird spot of having to answer questions about her tweets when he is trying to navigate his way through his first year in the league.
