Dolphins Release RB Mark Walton After Battery Arrest

Dolphins GM Chris Grier put out a statement on the situation.

“We were made aware of a police matter earlier this morning regarding Mark Walton,” Grier said.

“We hold our players to a high standard and take these matters very seriously. We will have no further comment at this time.”

A report from the Broward County (Fla.) police arrest report states that Walton allegedly pushed the victim against a wall and punched her several times in the face and head after an argument.

The victim is five weeks pregnant, according to the report, and Walton is the father of the child and was made aware of the pregnancy Sunday.
