The Baltimore Ravens have released a statement saying that they are "aware" of an incident involving running back Ray Rice outside an Atlantic City casino.
Rice and his fiancee were both arrested following an alleged physical altercation in which they "struck each other with their hands", according to a police report.
The Ravens acknowledged the situation with a brief team statement that also revealed that Rice and his fiancee both went home together once they were released.
"We are aware of the Friday night situation with Ray Rice and his fiancée. We have spoken with Ray, and know that they returned home together after being detained," read the statement.
Rice rushed for just 660 yards last season, averaging a career-low 3.1 yards per carry as the Ravens failed to reach the playoffs.
