Looks like Ray Rice will get more than the 2 game suspension and the full brunt of the NFL's newly enacted domestic violence policy. Goodell had been widely criticized for being too lenient on the Rice matter.

The grainy video, released by TMZ Sports, shows Rice and Janay Palmer in an elevator at an Atlantic City casino. Each hits the other before Rice knocks Palmer off her feet and into a railing. An earlier TMZ video had showed Rice dragging Palmer, now his wife, from the elevator at the Revel casino, which closed Sept. 2.
The Ravens said earlier Monday that they never saw the new video. Hours later, they sent out a one-sentence release:
"The Baltimore Ravens terminated the contract of RB Ray Rice this afternoon."
The NFL also took action, saying on Twitter that commissioner "Roger Goodell has announced that based on new video evidence that became available today he has indefinitely suspended Ray Rice."
