"Authorities said Jones tangled with hotel security investigating after he was pounding on hotel room doors Monday night. Cincinnati police said he pushed a security employee and poked him in the eye, then struggled, kicking and head-butting, as officers tried to put him into a police vehicle on the initial charge of assault.

He was charged with two more misdemeanors, of disorderly conduct and obstructing official business, and a felony charge of harassment with a bodily substance was added after the sheriff's office said he spit on a nurse's hand at the jail."

Corey Coleman has been accused of "felonious assault" in a Dec. 31 incident.
Coleman is accused of rupturing another man's ear drum and giving him a concussion. Via his agent, Coleman has issued a blanket denial. "My client denies participating in this incident," Coleman's agent said. "He will fully cooperate with the appropriate authorities and looks forward to clearing his name from what has been alleged."

Although the off-season hasn't begun yet for his team, Steelers linebacker coach Joey Porter was arrested tonight at a Pittsburgh bar after the game. Details are still sketchy at this point.

update:
Steelers OLBs coach Joey Porter has been charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, resisting arrest, public drunkenness, and disorderly conduct following a Sunday night incident at a Pittsburgh bar.
He posted $25,000 bond and was released from jail Monday morning. Porter is accused of assaulting the doorman at the bar after Porter was asked numerous times to leave. Porter has a preliminary hearing on January 19.

update:
Steelers OLBs coach Joey Porter will plead guilty to a disorderly conduct citation on Tuesday.
Porter was originally charged with aggravated assault among other things following an incident with a bar bouncer and police officer in early January, but the serious charges were eventually dropped. The citation carries up to 90 days in jail, but it is unlikely Porter faces any time behind bars. He still could be looking at league discipline. Feb 21 - 10:36 AM

Same neighborhood that Porter got into trouble at. Revis is originally from Western PA. Supposedly, one of the two men was trying to film Revis on his cellphone and the NFL player did not approve.

Darrelle Revis has been charged with four felonies for his role in a weekend fight in Pittsburgh.
That includes two counts of aggravated assault. Revis is accused of knocking two men unconscious. It's a serious matter, likely not the kind that will disappear. It's also an ill-timed off-field issue for a 31-year-old corner coming off a lousy year. Revis is guaranteed $6 million for 2017, but this greatly increases the chances he gets cut loose, which would create $9.3 million in cap space for the Jets.

Impending free agent Michael Floyd pled guilty to one count of extreme DUI Thursday in Scottsdale City Court.
The other six counts were dismissed. Floyd will serve a 120-day jail sentence, including 24 days in county jail and 96 days of home detention. He also must complete 30 hours of community service and pay a $5,115.99 fine. It's not a worst case scenario for Floyd, but it's pretty close. There was no way he was going to avoid jail time after blowing a .217. Coming off a down year, Floyd's free agent prospects aren't looking good.

WBRC FOX6 reports free agent Trent Richardson was arrested for domestic violence Thursday night in Hoover, Alabama.
A female victim was treated for scratches and bruises. The incident reportedly began at a Wal-Mart and continued until police were called to a Hyatt hotel, where Richardson was taken into custody. He's been charged with third-degree domestic violence and will appear before a judge on Friday. Richardson is being held on $1,000 bond. The former third overall pick hasn't played an NFL snap since 2014.

Ravens S and Impending free agent Matt Elam was arrested on drug charges Sunday in Miami.
Elam was pulled over for driving recklessly. When police searched his vehicle, they discovered 126 grams of marijuana and three grams of oxycodone. He was booked at 3:45 a.m. on charges of possession of more than 20 grams of cannabis, possession of cannabis with the intent to sell or deliver, and possession of a controlled substance. Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun believes the charges are serious enough to threaten Elam's career.

49ers CB Tramaine Brock was arrested on a felony domestic violence charge Thursday in Santa Clara.
Brock was arrested and booked into Santa Clara County Jail after police responded to a call and found his girlfriend with "visible injuries," though police have categorized the injuries as "minor." The alleged incident occurred less than a mile from 49ers team headquarters. Brock started all 16 games for San Francisco last season while earning PFF's No. 16 grade out of 119 qualifiers at cornerback.

Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin was arrested for the second time in two weeks on Thursday.
Popped for public intoxication and drug possession last Monday, Boykin was picked up on Thursday for violating his 2016 probation agreement. In other words, the second arrest is related to last week's episode, not a new incident. Boykin was arrested in Dec. 2015 for drunkenly assaulting a police officer during TCU's bowl week. Boykin's status as Russell Wilson's No. 2 is on life support.

WLOX Biloxi reports Redskins OLB Junior Galette was arrested Friday night for disorderly conduct and failure to comply with police orders.
WLOX reports Galette was involved in a fight at MGM Park in Biloxi, Mississippi before fleeing. Attorney Ralph Whalen confirmed to The New Orleans Advocate Galette was arrested, but he did not comment on the specifics of the case. This is not the first time Galette has faced legal trouble, and 2015 accusations of domestic violence ultimately ended his time in New Orleans, although the charges were eventually dropped. He has been with the Redskins the last two seasons, but both were spent on injured reserve with Achilles' injuries.

Jets WR Robby Anderson was arrested in Miami on Sunday and charged with resisting arrest with violence and obstruction of justice.
It's a felony charge. Anderson was at the Rolling Loud music festival over the weekend. Other than that, little details are known. It's yet another off-field issue in a string of them for the Jets this offseason. As an UDFA rookie last season, Anderson posted a 42-587-2 line and is expected to take a step forward in year two. He's currently penciled in as one of the top-three wideouts.
