Janay Rice, wife of suspended NFL player Ray Rice, apparently posted a statement Tuesday on Instagram calling the situation a “nightmare.”


“To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is a horrific (sic),” she wrote.

The Baltimore Ravens released Ray Rice on Monday after a video surfaced showing him knocking her out with a punch in February.

The Instagram post, reported by various media, appeared to be authentic. Rice was originally suspended for two games, a punishment that many saw as too lenient.

Rice was just weeks away from returning to the gridiron when the new video surfaced and the Ravens and the NFL acted more severely.

Rice was released by the Ravens, and suspended indefinitely from football by the NFL.

The new video shows Rice punching Janay Rice, who was his fiancée at the time, inside an elevator at a hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, seven months ago.
