Roughly one in five women has been victims of severe abuse from their partner, according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
 
The National Football League is all too familiar with this issue. Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy is in the middle of the controversy. He was found guilty of assault back in 2014.
 
The charges were dropped and after a four-game suspension, he's back on the field.
 
Now graphic images of his alleged victim have emerged online and some are saying he should be removed from the NFL.

While Hardy's NFL status remains a point of contention, for one of his teammates, abuse is a personal issue.
 
All-pro tight-end Jason Witten told CBN's Tom Buehring his game plan to stop domestic violence in today's "Faith on the Field." Click play to watch.
