@@@ Here s a sampling: 鈥揃roncos defensive tackle Terrance Knighton on Twitter:

That man should be thrown out the nfl and thrown into jail. Shame on those deciding his punishment. Smh 
As players we must speak up. Stand up for what s right. I don t give a damn who u are or how much money you make. No place for this. 
This video makes me sick to my stomach. 
As players we always speak on how we are unfairly treated, well now what? 

鈥揝aints tackle Zach Strief:

I don t know Ray Rice, but I know that video is disturbing. It s tough to see and it s unacceptable. It s upsetting. 

鈥揝teelers cornerback William Gay:

We re talking about a life, I don t care about <a href=http://capstone.edu.sg/clreplicashoes.php> Christian Louboutin Outlet Online</a>  a sport when it comes down to domestic violence. This is real. Someone can lose their life to it.
So I m not concerned about the sport. I m concerned about what happens in the world, what happens in real life. 

Gay s mother, Carolyn, was shot and killed by Gay s stepfather in Tallahassee, Florida, when Gay was 7 years old. He volunteers at the Women s Center Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh and is an advocate for domestic violence victims.

We need to do everything we can to help Ray Rice because we don t need to run away from him and say he s evil. 

鈥揃ills coach Doug Marrone, who supports Vera House, which assists victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse:

Am I happy the NFL has taken a harder stance? I mean, there is no excuse for abuse. I really believe that. 

鈥揅leveland Browns coach Mike Pettine, who called the video deeply disturbing, especially as a father that has two daughters :

There s just no place for that behavior in our society. 

Adding he wasn t surprised that Rice was cut after Petting saw the video, he was asked if he could coach a player involved in something similar: You don t want to ever talk in absolutes, but it would be really difficult, he said. 鈥揟itans tackle Michael Oher, former teammate of Rice s in Baltimore whose locker was next to the running back:

If my daughter was to get hit like that from another man, I d have a serious problem with it. So I wish him <a href=http://www.alportico.net/prodotti/christianlouboutin-sale.jkmsw.php>Christian Louboutin Replica</a>  the best, but it s no place for that. I don t care if you re a football player, a professional athlete or anything, a regular man or anything, there s no place for that 鈥?striking a woman. 

鈥揓udy Harris Kluger, a former New York City judge and now executive director of Sanctuary for Families, a leading service provider and advocate for survivors of domestic violence and related forms of gender violence:

The video of Ray Rice punching his fiancee in the elevator is a graphic illustration of what goes on behind closed doors every day in this country. In my years as a prosecutor and judge, I never saw such explicit videotape evidence of domestic violence. Today, by acting quickly and decisively, and in suspending Ray Rice and terminating his contract, the NFL and the Baltimore Ravens sent a powerful message that domestic violence will not be tolerated. 
I hope that with this action, along with the new policy outlined by Commissioner Goodell, the NFL will emerge as leaders in the fight against domestic violence. 

鈥揅oach Kyle Flood of Rutgers, where Rice attended:

Family is family, but at Rutgers we hold ourselves to an extremely high standard, and we expect a lot out of our players, and we expect a lot out of the coaches and the staff that we have here we expect a lot out of our alumni. I think because of those expectations, this is a sad day.
Ray will always be a part of our family. The video I saw this morning was difficult to watch. As a husband and as a father, there s nothing that could justify what I saw on that video.
This is <a href=http://www.alportico.net/prodotti/christianlouboutin-sale.jkmsw.php>Christian Louboutin Outlet</a>  a sad day for Ray and a sad day for Rutgers. 

鈥揥hite House spokesman Josh Earnest, who did not know whether President Barack Obama had seen the latest video.

This administration and this president do believe strongly that the scourge of violence against women is something that needs to be aggressively combatted. We certainly welcome any strong signals by anyone in this country in support of that value, Earnest said.
