Former Arizona Cardinals executive Bill Bidwill Jr. was covered in blood after being hit “a hundred times” by his wife, which included being struck in the head by a glass of beer, during a June 9 domestic dispute, according to police video obtained by TMZ Sports.
Bidwill Jr.’s face was bloody when cops arrived outside his home in Paradise Valley, Ariz., where he said his wife Nicole was unhappy about a carpet installation.
“She was very upset at me,” Bidwill Jr. told cops, according to TMZ Sports.
“I’m sitting on the couch, and she’s screaming at me. And I was trying to not escalate because she has a very bad temper.
“And then she started hitting me, and I just started defending myself.”
Bidwill Jr. said Nicole grabbed him and was “beating the s–t” out of him when he tried to get away from her.

He did not want his wife arrested because, as he told police: “She is not going to tolerate that well.”
A separate police video obtained by TMZ Sports shows cops questioning Nicole, who was lying on the hood of a car in the driveway.
Cops ultimately had to carry Nicole to a police car after she was placed under arrest.
Nicole was charged with assault but her husband didn’t want to press charges, per TMZ.
Bidwill Jr. was previously the vice president of the Cardinals under his dad, Bill Bidwill Sr., who owned the franchise from 1962-2019.
His brother, Michael, now owns the team, with Bidwill Jr. no longer with the organization.
