Former Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict was arrested Saturday in Nevada on a misdemeanor battery charge, according to multiple reports citing Clark County court records.
Burfict, who is currently a free agent, was being held on $1,000 bond - per the reports - with a hearing in the case set for Monday.
Burfict, 30, was reinstated in February from his suspension and was working in various ways to clean up his play for the 2020 NFL season and beyond, according to a report.
Burfict criticized the Bengals after he joined the Raiders before the start of the 2019 season.
