Former Seahawks defensive lineman Michael Bennett turned himself in to Harris County (Texas) court Monday afternoon on a felony charge of injury of the elderly relating to an incident at the Super Bowl on Feb. 5, 2017. He posted a $10,000 bond that will allow him to travel between his home in the Honolulu area and Houston for court appearances.

Bennett was indicted by a grand jury for the felony charge of injury of the elderly for injuring a 66-year-old paraplegic who was working at NRG Stadium in Houston to control access to the field at the Super Bowl in February 2017, the Harris County district attorney’s office announced on Friday.
