Kyle Davidson said he would keep the information about what happened between Pery and a team employee confidential. Following the termination of Perry's contract, Davidson has established a precedent that the team will not be the same organization that handled the Kyle Beach incident poorly.

He then released a statement making his apologies to the team and seeking professional advice to help him with his alcohol addiction.
