    New York police are likely to wrap up this week their investigation into an a March nightclub incident in which Chicago Bears receiver Brandon Marshall is alleged to have punched a woman in the face, NFL sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Police have struggled to find evidence against Marshall, according to sources, and it's likely there will be no charges and the case will be closed. Marshall said last week in a radio interview that he was confident he would be "cleared of any wrongdoing." It's not the first off-field incident involving Marshall, which he said makes him even more of a target in public. "You definitely have to let the judicial system take its course but again this also is one of those things as a result of everything I've been through in the past," Marshall said last week on "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "When you go through things that I've been through it makes you a bigger target. Not only am I an NFL player, I'm an NFL player that has had trouble in the past. Whenever I step out the target on my back is pretty much bigger than 90 percent, 95 percent of the guys in the league because of who I am and what I've been through."
