Former NFL running back Zac Stacy is going to have trouble finding work after he was caught on video committing a brutal act of domestic violence.
On Wednesday night, a video depicting Stacy violently beating the mother of his child in front of their five-month-old son was shared on the Internet.
The woman in the video spoke about her horrific ordeal with Stacy to the police.
“He punched me several times in the head! I begged him to stop because the baby was on the couch just a few feet from where he punched me.
“He then picked me up and threw me into my TV. The TV began to fall and he turned to make sure I wasn’t getting up. As I laid on the floor he began to yell at me, telling me I’m destructive. He then picked me up off the floor and off my feet and body-slammed me into our son’s bouncy seat.”
Less than 24 hours after the video was released, Stacy was fired from his youth football ambassador job with the Music City Bowl.

The TransPerfect Music City Bowl has cut ties with Zac Stacy … dropping the former NFL player from his role as a youth football ambassador after he was seen on video brutally attacking his ex-girlfriend.
The bowl — which is set to go down on Dec. 30 in Nashville, Tenn. — had partnered with the former Vanderbilt running back to promote the game as well as giving back to the local youth football community in the leadup to the matchup.
Stacy is currently on the run after he fled the scene before police were able to arrest him.
