Harbaugh declined to describe how Rice reacted to his termination. He said he and his wife would try to help Rice and his wife, Janay Palmer, however they could.

"My pain is for both of them as a couple," he said.

Harbaugh added he was satisfied with the diligence of the investigation into the incident. The video had not been available to the team before Monday, he said.

"It wasn't something we ever saw, ever had access to," he said.
