DALLAS -- Minnesota Vikings cornerback Jeff Gladney was indicted Tuesday by a Texas grand jury for felony assault of a woman he was previously in a relationship with.
Gladney, who was a first-round draft pick last year out of TCU, started 15 games for the Vikings as a rookie. He remains on the roster but has not been around the team since his arrest in April in Dallas.
He's charged with domestic violence by impeding breathing, for "intentionally, knowingly and recklessly" causing bodily injury and applying pressure to the woman's neck and throat, according to the indictment.
