ESPN has granted Phillips' request for time off, and has taken unspecified disciplinary action.

Police say 22-year-old ESPN production assistant Brooke Hundley called Phillips' wife in August after he broke off the affair and sent her a letter graphically describing their relationship.

Phillips says he will not press charges. The status of the police investigation was unclear Wednesday.

ESPN says Hundley is still working for the network.
