Hayne was charged with aggravated sexual assault on Monday night after handing himself in to police and spending 10 hours at Ryde police station.
Speaking to the press in Brisbane earlier in the day NRL boss Todd Greenberg said he would not answer any questions about the matter – before changing the subject to Valentine Holmes announcement he will pursue a move to the NFL in America.
‘I’m not going to talk about the issues for Jarryd. They are serious issues. I’m not going to talk about any impact on the game,’ Greenberg said.
‘Jarryd has issues to deal with. They are nothing to do with rugby league at the moment. They are issues for him to deal with in the courts. I’m not prepared to talk about that.’
The arrest follows allegations a woman suffered serious injuries and required treatment from a doctor in the aftermath of a sexual encounter with the football star, who has agreed to a series of strict bail conditions.
The 26-year-old claims she met Hayne through social media before the football star travelled to meet her on September 30 this year – the night of the NRL Grand Final.
Police will allege that the pair had consensual sex at a home at Newcastle, in the NSW Hunter Region, before the woman told Hayne she was ‘withdrawing consent’.
Hayne, 30, spent 10 hours at Ryde Police Station on Monday before he was charged with aggravated sexual assault inflict actual bodily harm over the alleged incident.
Desperate to avoid spending the night behind bars, the NRL legend paid a $20,000 surety and agreed to the strict bail conditions in exchange for his freedom.
As part of the bail conditions imposed by police, the one-time NFL player was forced to surrender his passport and may not apply for a new one.
Hayne has also been banned from visiting the Newcastle region – where the woman still lives – and cannot contact, stalk, threaten or harass his alleged victim.
He must also report to police on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday each week.
The dejected footy star and his manager Wayne Beavis refused to answer questions from the media pack as he finally left Ryde Police Station early on Tuesday morning and climbed into a waiting car.
He was then driven to an address in north-west Sydney, where he must reside as part of his bail conditions.
The football star is due to appear at Burwood Local Court on December 10 in relation to the charges.
According to the NSW Criminal Code, a sexual assault becomes ‘aggravated’ if the offender inflicts ‘actual bodily harm on the alleged victim intentionally’.
If convicted, Hayne is facing a maximum sentence of 20 years in jail.

Hayne hired Salim Mehajer’s former lawyer Ramy Qutami over the weekend.
The woman originally complained to the NRL’s Integrity Unit about the incident, and the unit then referred the woman to the police.
Hayne is yet to comment on the allegations and his family on the NSW Central Coast told 9 News: ‘There’ll be no comment’.
The two-time Dally M Medallist is one of the biggest names in the NRL and had a magical run to help the Eels to the 2009 grand final.
He has played 11 Tests for Australia, 23 State of Origins for NSW, scored 121 tries in 214 NRL games and had a stint in the NFL in America.
The latest allegations come as Hayne faces civil legal action in the US over claims he raped a woman during his time with the San Francisco 49ers NFL team in 2015.
Police declined to charge Hayne after investigating the allegations, but the woman has since lodged a civil suit.
Hayne has vehemently denied the claims.

The charges laid against Hayne this week signify an enormous fall from grace for the man who was once the most exciting prospect in rugby league.
As a child Hayne grew up in a housing commission block in western Sydney, with his mother Jodie raising him on her own.
The football star has told stories of how his mother slept by the door to ensure her children would be safe from home invaders.
His father is former rugby league star Manoa Thompson, who was absent when Hayne was growing up but reunited with his son later in life.
After showing his prodigious football talent at Westfields Sports High School he put pen to paper with the Parramatta Eels and after making his debut as a teenager, went on to become their biggest superstar.
In 2009 he won his first Dally M medal as the NRL’s best player and also starred in the annual State of Origin contest for NSW.

After numerous caps for Australia and NSW, Hayne won his second Dally M award in 2014.
But after establishing himself as a superstar Hayne rocked the code with his move to American football in 2015.
Defying the odds he gained a spot on the roster of the San Francisco 49ers – one of the NFL’s most famous teams – before quitting at the end of the season.
After an unsuccessful stint playing rugby sevens for Fiji, he returned to the NFL with the Gold Coast Titans before moving back to Parramatta for the 2018 season.
But in the wake of his arrest and charging on Monday Hayne now faces the likelihood that his NRL career is over.
