The Dallas Cowboys have declined comment on the release of photos by Deadspin of Greg Hardy's ex-girlfriend's bruises.

The Deadspin piece also includes records of how he threw Nicole Holder against a bathroom wall, onto a bed covered with assault rifles, choking her and threatening her life at his apartment.

Hardy was signed by the Cowboys this past offseason.

In February, when the case was thrown out, Hardy asked that the charges be expunged from his record, The Charlotte Observer reports. In April, he filed paperwork with the same request, and a judge in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, signed the order this week.

That means the incident is not listed on Hardy's record.

Jerry Jones recently praised Hardy as a "real leader."

Hardy was suspended by the NFL on April 22 for the first 10 games of this season, but that suspension was reduced to four games by arbitrator Harold Henderson on July 10.
