Greg Hardy told NFL he wasn’t responsible for Nicole Holder injuries
Greg Hardy took to Twitter Saturday night to express remorse over things that have happened in his past, but the Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman could not have been referring to the injuries suffered by his ex-girlfriend — at least if what he told the NFL was true.
An extensive report that included some disturbing photos was released earlier this week, sparking outrage over the fact that Hardy was never charged with domestic violence. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Hardy told league investigators several months ago that he was not responsible for the injuries to Nicole Holder.
The NFL saw the photos and used them to justify a 10-game suspension, but Hardy insisted Holder is the one who attacked him and he simply defended himself. He also said she was intoxicated and fell down.
If you have seen the photos, you probably have a very difficult time believing Holder did all of that to herself. Her injuries coupled with some of the interviews she conducted make it seem like Hardy beat Holder and she was terrified of him.
Prosecutors say Hardy reached a settlement with Holder, which is why she basically disappeared and stopped cooperating with investigators. Rapoport confirmed what Jerry Jones said about the photos, but common sense would tell you the Cowboys either knew what the images showed or took a “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach.
If Holder was somehow responsible for the extensive injuries she sustained, why the apology?
Just had to say I express my regret 4 what happened in past and I'm Dedicated to being the best person & teammate that I can be

Hardy shouldn’t be walking the streets let alone playing professional football.
