Janay Rice recently opened up to New York Magazine about the infamous elevator incident that sparked a conversation about domestic violence within the NFL.

It was hard knowing I wasn’t his first priority.” She said that on that night in Atlantic City, she became upset that Ray wasn’t spending time with her, and he snapped.
