Report: Ex-NFL WR Alshon Jeffery Facing Fraud Charges

TMZ said the former wide receiver faces a felony that could bring up to five years in prison.

  • On Wednesday, former NFL wide receiver Alshon Jeffery was arrested in California on a felony insurance fraud charge involving an alleged failure to "conceal/fail to disclose insurance benefit or payment," TMZ reported.
  • The arrest reportedly stems from a minor freeway fender bender, with the felony charge carrying potential penalties of up to five years in prison under California law if Jeffery is convicted.
  • Jeffery played nine seasons in the NFL, catching 475 passes for 6,786 yards and 46 touchdowns, with his final four seasons spent with the Philadelphia Eagles winning Super Bowl LII in 2018.
  • Jeffery's representative, Denise White, called the allegations "unfounded," stating he has not been convicted of any offense and remains confident the legal process will demonstrate this was a misunderstanding.
  • Throughout his career, which ended after his 2021 release, Jeffery earned about $63 million and has not played in the league since his final season with the Eagles in 2020.
