As he left the jail, Sanchez spoke to reporters for the first time since the incident, thanking the first responders for saving his life.
'I'm just focused on my recovery,' he told Fox 59. 'I want to thank the first responders Eskenazi hospital. I just want to thank Dr. Mossler, the surgeon, she saved my life. I'm grateful for that.
Meanwhile, Bobby T, 46, who shares son Daniel with Sanchez, also broke her silence on the incident on social media as she brutally claimed that she was unsurprised to learn that the former signal caller was embroiled in the violent altercation.
The model, whose real name is Erin Campaneris, insisted that her main concern in the week since the incident had been to shelter her eight-year-old son from the scandal concerning his father.
'Now that everything is out in the open, my focus hasn't changed,' she wrote in a statement on Instagram 'I have always been concerned for his safety and for what he is exposed to. Sadly, none of this is surprising to me.
'Like everyone else, I learned of the horrific event through a news alert on my phone while sitting next to Daniel. I still know only what is publicly available.
'My thoughts and empathy are with the victim and everyone affected by this devastating event. It has created a wide ripple effect, touching many lives.
'I understand that we live in a very public world, but my hope is that as my son grows, he can be seen and understood apart from this story.
'At the end of the day, I'm simply a mama to a very sweet young boy doing my best to protect his peace. Thank you for the compassion so many have shown toward Daniel and me.'
Born in Londonderry to parents Evelyn and Bert Campaneris, who is a famous US baseball player, Bobby was raised Cuban and received her education in Japan. She has modelled since she was 15 and is currently signed to agencies Ford Models, LA Models, and New York Models.
Last year, she was linked to actor Will Poulter, who is 14 years her junior. However, they went their separate ways earlier this year after it was reported he had moved on with Top Boy actress Saffron Hocking.
While it is unclear when Bobby and Sanchez split, he has since gone on to marry Shameless actress Perry Mattfeld. The couple have two children together after she gave birth to twins in March.
