 Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson also was outspoken after the
Eagles' 33-27 overtime win over the Cowboys on Sunday night.
Photos showing bruises and abrasions on the body of Hardy's former
girlfriend, Nicole Holder, were published Friday by Deadspin. The
Cowboys claim they did not see the pictures before signing Hardy,
even though the NFL acknowledged seeing the graphic evidence during
its own investigation.
"There are three (types) of people I have zero respect for in this
world," Kelce told the Philadelphia Daily News.
"It's people who hit women, people who molest children, and rapists.
I'm glad he (Hardy) didn't have a good day and ... I don't know. I
think it's a joke a guy like that is able to play this quickly."

active roster on Monday, Dec. 7.
Bailey was suspended four games in 2014 for violating the league's
