New England Patriots safety and team captain Jabrill Peppers has reportedly been arrested on some disturbing charges.
Peppers, who has been nursing a shoulder injury, was not in the team against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
According to CBS, the player was taken into custody after police received a report of an altercation between two people at his home in Braintree, Massachusetts, on Saturday. He is understood to have been arrested on multiple charges, including strangulation and possession of drugs.
Braintree police announced the arrest on Monday. The safety is expected to be charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, strangulation, and possession of a Class B drug believed to be cocaine.
Police noted that the victim was treated for injuries at the scene.
Peppers will be arraigned at the Quincy District Court on Monday.
Jabrill Peppers Signed A Lucrative Extension With The Pats This Year
Jabrill Peppers celebrated his 29th birthday on Friday.
The safety, who had an interception against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 4, was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in 2017 and was traded to the New York Giants two years later.
He signed with the Patriots as a free agent in 2022.
Peppers inked a three-year, $30 million extension with the team in July and was named a team captain by new head coach Jerod Mayo before the start of the season.
He is one of the NFL players who have been wearing a soft-shell guardian cap in games this year.
