Just when you thought you had heard everything about this story involving Richie Incognito and Jonathan Martin, the plot thickens. Earlier tonight, Martin released a statement through his lawyer, David Cornwell. Check it out below.

Jonathan Martin’s 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’s “smash mouth” brand of football and he protected Andrew Luck’s blind side.

If this is true, then Martin's teammates clearly crossed the line by bringing family into it, especially a female family member. We don't know about y'all, but we have no clue who to believe anymore.
