Brown posted the following statement on the team’s official website: “I will accept the suspension even though I disagree with it. I have used up all of my appeals options and am at a loss for what to do next. I’ll keep putting in a lot of effort for this team, and I have a lot of faith in my teammates and my capacity to advance and benefit the group.”

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the NFL released a statement regarding the suspension:

Regarding Brown, Giants owner John Mara stated the following in a news conference held on Wednesday during practice:

According to Paul Schwartz of the New York Post, Brown stated on August 18 that he disagreed with the suspension because the incident occurred a year ago and he was fired five days later.

The New York Daily News’ Seth Walder reports that Molly Brown, Brown’s ex-wife, “told police on the day of his arrest that the Giants kicker had been physically violent with her more than 20 times and that she had previously had a protection order against him.”

Brown was cited for breaking the protective order last summer, according to a report published on Friday by Jordan Raanan of ESPN.

ESPN’s Adam Caplan reports that Brown’s suspension will cost him $72,058 in pay and his $15,625 Week 1 roster bonus.

The reason for Brown’s one-game suspension was not disclosed by the league, but James Kratch of NJ.com revealed on August 17 that Brown was taken into custody by the King County Sheriff’s Department in May 2015 on a misdemeanor domestic abuse charge.

Brown and his spouse live in Woodinville, Washington, and the anonymous victim made the 911 call from there. The police report stated that the victim had a small cut and redness on the wrist.

The Giants take on the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on September 11 to kick off the 2016 campaign.

Tom Obarski, another kicker on the team, might start in place of Brown if he is sidelined for the opening contest. Before the regular season begins, New York has time to observe Obarski during the preseason to see if a different replacement is required.
