Ray Rice Faced Suspension for Physical Abuse

Raymell Rice spent six seasons as a running back for the Baltimore Ravens. He became a Super Bowl champion with the team and also made it to the Pro Bowl three times.

Things took a wrong turn when the former running back was accused of physical abuse against the then-fiancee and now wife, Janay Palmer in 2017. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell suspended the player for two games. After surveillance footage of a physical altercation between the couple came out in the open, Goodell suspended Rice indefinitely.
