A former Florida football player and potential NFL draft prospect is facing a misdemeanor charge after an alleged physical altercation with a woman, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.
Caleb Brantley was charged with misdemeanor simple battery after he allegedly struck a woman with a closed fist and knocked her unconscious in the early hours of April 13 in Gainesville, Florida, according to a report released by Gainesville Police.
Brantley and the alleged victim were engaged in a verbal altercation due to crude comments made by Brantley when the alleged victim pushed Brantley, who allegedly responded by striking the victim in the face, knocking her unconscious and causing dental injuries that displaced a tooth, the report stated.
