Unemployed defensive end Greg Hardy is trying to find a way back into the NFL and recently gave an interview in which he claimed he never put his hands on the woman who accused him of domestic violence.
Hardy’s former teammate Steve Smith isn’t buying it.
Smith posted a snippet of Hardy’s interview on Twitter and then wrote, sarcastically, “So I guess she tripped on the carpet or something.”
Given the photographs of Hardy’s accusers injuries, it’s easy to understand why Smith is skeptical of Hardy’s claim that he never put his hands on his accuser. Charges against Hardy were dropped when his accuser accepted a civil settlement from him and declined to testify against him, but that’s a far cry from saying Hardy never put his hands on her.
Smith and Hardy were teammates on the Panthers from 2010 to 2013.
