David Cornwell, the lawyer of Miami Dolphins tackle Jonathan Martin released a statement on Thursday detailing more alleged events that took place in Miami.<\/p>\n
The full statement can be read below:<\/p>\n
Jonathan Martin\u2019s toughness is not at issue. Jonathan has started every game with the Miami Dolphins since he was drafted in 2012. At Stanford, he was the anchor for Jim Harbaugh\u2019s \u201csmash mouth\u201d brand of football and he protected\u00a0Andrew Luck\u2019s blind side.<\/p>\n
The issue is Jonathan\u2019s treatment by his teammates.\u00a0 Jonathan endured harassment that went far beyond the traditional locker room hazing.\u00a0 For the entire season-and-a-half that he was with the Dolphins, he attempted to befriend the same teammates who subjected him to the abuse with the hope that doing so would end the harassment.\u00a0 This is a textbook reaction of victims of bullying.\u00a0 Despite these efforts, the taunting continued.\u00a0 Beyond the well-publicized voice mail with its racial epithet, Jonathan endured a malicious physical attack on him by a teammate, and daily vulgar comments such as the quote at the bottom.\u00a0 These facts are not in dispute.<\/p>\n
Eventually, Jonathan made a difficult choice. Despite his love for football, Jonathan left the Dolphins. Jonathan looks forward to getting back to playing football. In the meantime, he will cooperate fully with the NFL investigation.<\/p>\n
Quote from teammate: \u201cWe are going to run train on your sister. . . . She loves me. I am going to f\u2013k her without a condom and c\u2013 in her c\u2014.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
