Former NFL Safety Patrick Chung Charged With Assault

Former Patriots and Eagles safety Patrick Chung was charged on Monday with assault and battery on a family/household member.

Chung is set to appear in court on Tuesday in Quincy, Ma.

The former safety was arrested in Milton, Ma. According to WBZ4 in Boston, the criminal complaint filed noting Chung's arrest did not reveal any additional details.

Chung tweeted Monday afternoon, "Best day of my life," though it is unclear what the intent behind the message was.

The 34-year-old safety retired from football after last season, ending a more than decade-long career that featured two stints with the Patriots.
