Chad Johnson’s release from a Florida jail Monday was supposed to be the final act of a saga that dates to August, when the former Chad Ochocinco was arrested at his home for headbutting his wife, Evelyn Lozada, during an argument.

On Tuesday, however, TMZ released several photos of Lozada following the incident, which led to the couple's divorce in September, after just 41 days of marriage.

The images (below) show a large gash on Lozada’s forehead and have stirred up discussion about just how violent the confrontation was.

In May, Johnson was arrested after violating his probation and was sentenced to 30 days in jail after smacking his lawyer on the backside during a court appearance. The sentence was later cut short after one rough week in the slammer and Johnson was released on Monday, with his probation extended to October.

Johnson, a six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver with the Cincinnati Bengals, has not appeared in an NFL game since Super Bowl XLVI, when he caught one pass for 21 yards for the New England Patriots.
