Ex-NFL running back Ray Rice apologizes for assaulting his wife

Running back Ray Rice, released by the Baltimore Ravens after video surfaced of him knocking his then-fiancee unconscious in a New Jersey casino elevator, apologized on Friday to the team and the city of Baltimore for the “horrible mistake I made.”
Rice, arrested after the assault last February, spent his entire seven-year National Football League career with the Ravens and is now hoping another team will give him a second chance.
Rice made his apology in a statement addressed to “Dear Baltimore” and said it was not a farewell.
“To all the kids who looked up to me, I’m truly sorry for letting you down but I hope it’s helped you learn that one bad decision can turn your dream into a nightmare,” he said in a statement.
