Richie Incognito has taken to social media to write an open letter to Jonathan Martin, accusing him of "starting" their conflict and saying that he had admitted he was suicidal last summer.
The Miami Dolphins last week ended the suspension of Incognito, which was enforced last season when former teammate Martin accused him of harassment in their locker room.
The investigation into the incident is still ongoing, and now Incognito has voiced his latest outburst via his personal Twitter account.
He said: "Dear Jon Martin..... The truth is going to bury you and your entire "camp". You could have told the truth the entire time.
"Jon Martin- you started all of this when Kenny Zuckerman released the voicemail to ESPN. The same VM we joked about with @brianhartline. Kenny Zuckerman from Priority Sports... What do you have to say for your actions? Why did you release the VM. What was your goal?
"I'm guilty of being a loyal friend and good teammate. I apologize for my poor language and rude remarks. I've never denied it. I apologize to all of the women out there that I offended with my text messages to my close personal friend.
"FACT: Jonathan Martin told me he thought about taking his own life in MAY 2013 b/c he wasn't playing well. Told me he felt worthless. I have no further comment at this time. Please contact my attorney Mark Schamel @WCSRtweet 202-857-4481."
Martin's own account has been active since Incognito's tweets, but has not responded to them.
