OXFORD, Ohio -- A former Cincinnati Bengals football player has pleaded no contest to assault and indecent exposure.
The Cincinnati Enquirer reports 26-year-old Jerome Schaffer, of Morgan Township, entered the pleas to the misdemeanors Thursday in a Butler County court.
Authorities say Schaffer was apparently under the influence of drugs when he was arrested in February after he allegedly got into a fight, tried to break into some cars and exposed himself at a church parking lot.
He is to be sentenced next month.
His attorney said he has attended treatment programs and is now doing well.
