Los Angeles Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson was arrested recently on suspicion of domestic violence after an alleged incident with a woman at his home, and he was facing a potential felony domestic battery charge. However, on Thursday, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office told NBC4 Los Angeles that Jackson won’t face felony charges for the alleged incident.
The case was sent to the city attorney’s office for possible misdemeanor charges, and it is still under review.
Jackson got into an altercation with his pregnant ex-girlfriend, and he allegedly left bruises and scratches on her body. He attempted to take her phone, causing the injuries during the struggle after she began recording his actions.
She filed a temporary restraining order against Jackson, which was granted by a judge. Jackson is ordered to stay away from her, her car and her job, and he has been forced to move out of his home, as well.
Jackson was suspended two games in 2024 for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy, so if the league finds that he violated it again, he could face harsher punishment.
