Luke Petitgout, the ex-New York Giant lineman who is facing charges of assaulting his wife in both New Jersey and New York, skipped a Bergen County, NJ court date last week. Petitgout's lawyers claimed he checked himself into a rehab facility. According to Bouncer Chronicles, Luke's wife Jennifer saw him the same day he was due in court at a local restaurant in nearby Ridgewood.
It's still unclear what the "rehab" program would be for, how long it would last or if Petitgout had already checked out. The NJ case stems from an arrest back in November when the 6'6, 310-pound ex-NFL lineman was arrested on sexual assault charges against Jennifer for allegedly attacking her at their home.
