Some more details have emerged regarding the
criminal assault complaint filed against former NFL coaches Rex and Rob Ryan.
Via the
Buffalo News, the alleged victim, 30-year-old Matthew Havel, makes specific accusations against Rex Ryan.
“He alleges that he saw the Ryans in Margaritaville on Broadway, went up to their table, and that after being there for more than an hour,
Rex Ryan reached across and grabbed at his neck,” Metro Nashville Police Department public affairs manager Don Aaron said via email. “Havel alleges it was unprovoked.”
The
video of the incident shows Rob, not Rex, grabbed an unidentified man by the throat. But Rob Ryan is listed only as a witness in the police report.

Former Chiefs and Panthers running back Darrin Reaves was arrested over the weekend, following a domestic incident involving two women.
According to WRMJ, Reaves faces
two Class 4 felony counts of unlawful restraint and a Class A misdemeanor of criminal trespass to a residence.
He was arrested by Aledo (Ill.) Police Sunday. The state prosecutor said Reaves had a prior relationship with one of the women, and that both had filed orders of protection against him. He’s currently free on $10,000 bond.
Reeves, who played at Alabama-Birmingham, played for the Panthers in 2014, and spent the last two seasons with the Chiefs’ practice squad. He was waived-injured in May following sports hernia surgery.

Steelers corner: A “blessing” he wasn’t arrested for gun at airport
Posted by Darin Gantt on June 8, 2017
Steelers cornerback
Senquez Golson carries a gun with him for protection when he’s back home in Mississippi, but he dodged a figurative bullet by flying through Alabama on his way back to Pittsburgh.
The oft-injured cornerback
was not arrested when TSA agents found a gun and 23 rounds of ammunition in his luggage at the security checkpoint at the Mobile airport in April.
“They were telling me good thing I was in the state of Alabama.
That was a blessing,” Golson said, via Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.
“I just went through the airport rushing, threw everything on the belt, and it just rolled through,” he added. “They kind of looked at me, and I said, ‘I know I don’t have any liquids in there.’ They were kind of looking at me, we were both looking with confused faces. Good thing I was with some good people. The officers there, they were good people.”
While other players have been arrested this offseason for similar forgetfulness (though charges against wide receiver Louis Murphy
were dropped), the law in Alabama allows people to carry guns in an airport (though he could have been fined since it wasn’t checked in a hard-sided case).
But airport police chief Brian Fillingim said Golson was friendly and immediately contrite, recognizing he had simply forgotten to take the gun out of his bag when he packed. Golson said he didn’t intend to take it with him to Pittsburgh, but intends to collect it when he returns to Mobile en route to his home in Pascagoula, Mississippi, where he has two young sons.
“Personal protection — it gets kind of weird down there sometimes,” Golson said.
(Hopefully he’s a little more aware of the location of his firearm as the boys grow up.)
With that matter behind him, the 2015 second-rounder can concentrate on getting on the field. That’s something he hasn’t done in his two years with the Steelers, following a torn labrum and a Lisfranc injury which each required surgery.
