Broncos' Linebacker Jonathon Cooper Arrested for Second Time in a Week

Police say the NFL will review the case under its personal conduct policy, and Cooper could face a six-game suspension if convicted.

  • Denver Broncos outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper was booked into Douglas County Jail Thursday night after allegedly violating a protection order, marking his second arrest this month.
  • Cooper's legal troubles stem from a June 4 incident where conflicting accounts emerged regarding a physical altercation with his girlfriend, with allegations ranging from strangulation to a struggle over a phone.
  • Prosecutors added a felony charge of second-degree assault by strangulation Wednesday in Douglas County District Court, alongside a misdemeanor charge of "knowingly or recklessly causing bodily injury."
  • During a court appearance Friday, a judge issued a $5,000 PR bond for Cooper, while Broncos head coach Sean Payton confirmed team leadership had a "long visit" with the player.
  • The NFL is reviewing the matter under its personal conduct policy, which could result in suspension, with Cooper's next court appearance scheduled for July 14.
