Fort LOUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — The Cleveland Browns rookie running through Quinsion Judkins was arrested Saturday night in Florida on charges of battery and domestic violence.
Judkins was jailed overnight, awaiting his first court appearance, according to Broward County’s arrest records. The charges are described in the arrest report as “touch or strike/battery/domestic violence.”
Fees are misdemeanors. The records do not show whether Judkins has an attorney to comment on his behalf.
A Browns spokesman said the team is aware of the incident and is gathering more information.
The 21-year-old Judkins was his 36th overall pick in the April draft after rushing for 1,060 yards and 14 touchdowns for Ohio State last season.
The Browns drafted Judkins in the hopes that he could return to the team’s lead after Nick Chubb signed with the Houston Texans. Cleveland also drafted Dylan Sampson in the fourth round.
Judkins is the only member of the Browns’ seven-player draft class who has not signed his rookie contract. The Cleveland rookie is scheduled to report to training camp on Friday.
