Contrary to Roger Goodell's claims about the "ambiguous" nature of Ray Rice's side of the story, a recent report by Outside the Lines states that Rice was up front with the commissioner while telling his side of the story. Four sources have reportedly said that the former Baltimore Ravens running back told Goodell during a June 16 disciplinary meeting that he punched his then-fiancee in the face, knocking her unconscious in a casino elevator.
Ray Rice was honest with Roger Goodell about punching his fiancee, per report
A report by Outside the Lines cites four sources who claim the disgraced running back was forthcoming while meeting with the commissioner, contradicting Goodell’s previous claims.
That differs from Goodell’s statements earlier this week, when he told CBS News “when we met with Ray Rice and his representatives, it was ambiguous about what actually happened.”
“Ray didn’t lie to the commissioner,” a source reportedly familiar with the meeting told Outside the Lines. “He told the full truth to Goodell -- he made it clear he had hit her, and he told Goodell he was sorry and that it wouldn’t happen again.”
“He told the truth,” a second source is cited as saying. “This is a public lynching of Ray.”
Two other sources backed up those accounts, while a fifth source said Rice told Goodell he “slapped” his fiancee.
