The Giants said they weren’t going to turn their back on Josh Brown, but it appears they’re not going to let him kick for them again either.
The NFL has announced that Giants kicker will be placed on the Commissioner’s-Exempt list. According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, Brown has “kicked his last kick” for the Giants.
Banishing him to the exempt list — as was done with Greg Hardy and Adrian Peterson — means he’s on paid leave, while the Giants try to find a way to divorce themselves from an ugly situation.
In documents released this week, Brown admitted years of phsyical and emotional abuse of his then-wife.
