July 13: The NFL has released a statement indicating it is aware of this matter but is presently declining comment, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Meanwhile, Oysefusi passes along a statement from the Fort Lauderdale PD, which reads as follows:
On July 12th, at approximately 9 a.m., Fort Lauderdale Police Officers responded to the 1500 block of West Cypress Creek Road in reference to a delayed battery. Officers arrived on scene and spoke with the victim. During their preliminary investigation it was determined a battery had occurred. The officers made contact with the suspect and placed him into custody. He was transported to Broward County Main Jail. The suspect has been identified as Quinshon Judkins, DOB 10/29/2003 and has been charged with Misdemeanor Battery.
July 12: Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins has been arrested on charges of battery and domestic violence, as noted by The Athletic’s Zac Jackson.
Judkins was arrested today in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, per information from the Broward County Sheriff. This news comes shortly before the start of Cleveland’s training camp. Judkins is among the 30 second-round picks from this year’s draft which have yet to sign their rookie contracts.
Through a spokesman the Browns said in a statement they are “aware and gathering information” about this situation (via Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal). Records indicate the case is “pending trial” at this point, and ESPN’s Daniel Oyefusi adds a court appearance is scheduled for tomorrow morning. The charges in question are usually a first-degree misdemeanor under Florida law.
Judkins spent his first two college campaigns at Ole Miss. That span included a freshman season in which he racked up 1,567 yards and 16 touchdowns on the ground. His sophomore campaign saw a reduction in efficiency but another 17 total scores. Judkins transferred to Ohio State for the 2024 season. While operating as a key member of the Buckeyes’ backfield tandem, the 21-year-old averaged 5.5 yards per carry and amassed 1,221 scrimmage yards en route to the team’s national championship.
Last year, Browns second-rounder Mike Hall was arrested on a domestic violence charge. The defensive tackle missed the first four games of the campaign before a one-game suspension was ultimately handed down. Free agent linebacker Devin Bush could likewise face legal and/or league consequences after he was charged with simple assault and harassment stemming from an alleged incident involving his girlfriend this spring.
The NFL routinely waits for the legal process to play out before launching an investigation and (potentially) handing down a fine or suspension under the personal conduct policy, particularly in domestic violence cases. Even though Judkins is not yet under contract, he is still subject to the policy and thus any discipline which winds up being deemed necessary depending on how his situation unfolds.
That’s such a very Cleveland Browns thing to do.
Cleveland Browns typically find beating women to be easier than opponents.
Kinda like how Roethlisberger finds it easier to trap women in a bathroom than to take rejection like an adult.
I love how every fanbase in the AFC North has a comeback for these types of disses whether it be the like mentioned the Browns with their storied history of behavior, the Steelers with Ben and others, Bengals with Mixon and now Burton or Ravens with Tucker and now Mike Green lol
The black and blue wife’s face division
Didn’t even know about Burton. When did that happen?
He’s pretty much been a train wreck since he got to Cincinatti to the point the inconspicuous Taylor even called him out last year.
Such a rookie mistake… first, you sign the contract. THEN you act like a complete idiot.
Seriously, I’m getting so tired of reading these. Love shouldn’t be an MMA fight.
Republicans are committing crimes large and small like crazy right now. Hell the president is a literal felon. But enjoy your delusion.
Jesus youre an idiot. Whatever you think of any politician has no bearing on what athletes do. Judkins may or may not be a fool, time will tell. You’ve juat proven you’re an idiot. Good job.
Me? I was responding to someone who said all criminals are democrats. It seems to have been deleted.
It was an idiotic comment that was deleted.
You’re both delusional so congrats on that.
Yeah, I’m a republican and know this is a garbage, gaslighting post. Politics and sports are oil and water.
Ever heard of Matt Gaetz? Richard Nixon? This comment is absurdly pathetic.
Could name plenty of Democrats so how about both sides of partisan ignoramuses stop talking?
Surprised the comments are open, the 2nd round holdouts shouldn’t be too happy he’s part of the group demanding guarantees.
They’d be closed if it were a story about Jose Reyes
Yep. He’s going to sign his contract immediately lol. 2nd rounders not happy but nice try.
Your whole party is the biggest crime ring in American history. You literally voted for rich people to steal from you, moron.
No matter who you vote for that is what you get. Along with America 2nd at best, Israel is always first.
Another delusional comment. Biden was easily worse.
@notimportant you watch too much Fox News and listen to too much Joe Rogan. @roob you are correct.
I’ve literally never watched Fox News, you absolute clown.
I love when partisan people project being partisan onto everybody else because they don’t have the tiniest bit of self awareness to see the flaws with their own “side” or the flaws in taking sides at all.
Fox News and Joe Rogan?
Maybe in 2017
Seriously, they project that onto anybody who criticize Democrats. It’s pathetic middle school type ish.
Looks like Bears dodged that bullet anyway.
Is there an annual competition among counties in Florida to see who can arrest the most pro athletes?
Y’all, keep your political comments off of this site. Not a single one of them has added anything productive. Every single one has been generalized, inflammatory, and only added to the already toxic partisan atmosphere in the world around us. You are making a conscious choice to participate in that by spreading it, no matter what you think is right. If you don’t care, fine, but don’t close our comment sections because of your need to clap back at people who can’t stay on topic in the first place.
Please exercise some restraint and show some respect so that we can continue to have discussions on why we visit this site in the first place.
Goku said every criminal is a democrat. Someone can’t say something like that without getting clapped back while our country is being kneecapped.
You could ask Donald Trump to revoke his citizenship 🙂
Who cares what anyone says? There’s no need to engage in that. It just furthers along the whole affair. No need to drag the forum down with that.
Who cares when hateful garbage is posted in a forum they frequent? Come on.
You constantly post delusional nonsense about politics, like the above.
You’re no different than that person, and you’re literally always wrong in what you say about politics.
You’re the guy who once kept insisting Dallas Goedert is a perennial pro bowler even after it was pointed out he’s never been one, so you calling someone delusional is funny to me.
I’m far from alone in that assertion. QB play and injuries have held him back. QB play has held back Devonta Smith as well given the fact that he’s a guy who could easily get 1,100 yards or more every year with a QB who actually knows how to be a passer and spread the ball around or not throw it away after bailing out of clean pockets over and over.
You’ve made plenty of ridiculous football related claims so you don’t want to play that game.
I’ve been pretty objectively informed since the Bush administration and am a registered independent who has always voted Democrat when I’ve voted. You’re the one who’s clearly incapable of seeing anything politics related objectively. So yeah, delusional.
You literally haven’t cited a single thing I’ve actually said while once again debating the actual facts about Goedert.
I’m not going to waste my time bringing up your comments on other articles to prove my point. I have actual things to do and very little free time or energy to devote most days and refuse to waste it on you.
You don’t have the facts on your side. You have whatever partisan nonsense you’ve eaten up with a spoon like a starving dog and asked for more without ever questioning it.
As far as Goedert, well the actual facts are he’s elite in every skill necessary to be an elite tight end and has proven that time and time again. His numbers don’t show it because he has a QB who most games barely passes for 200 yards if that and still seems to have no ability to progress through his reads. When actually given the opportunity though, he just missed 1,000 yards once again due to injury.
“I’m not going to waste my time” is a funny thing to follow with a couple of empty paragraphs. Have a good one.
It took like a minute to type but hey keep playing childish games to feel superior. You’re the man!
Well, that’s my point. Everyone here has engaged. Look at the result. Nobody is any better, and none of us have learned anything useful.
I’m not taking sides. I’m saying, from experience, that an eye for eye does have a tendency to make for a world full of self-righteous blind people.
Look around. This is silly, and worse, stupid. This is not what we’re here for. Other peoples’ actions do not dictate your own. Don’t allow someone else’s actions to control what you do-that’s giving them the power to control you, and then you start to contribute to the problem. I’m saying this to everybody-please stop. We’re here for football.
Others have the option to not start. You have the option to move along. I stick to football when others do. Miss me with the both sides sermonizing.
It wasn’t aimed at just you, Oof. That’s the problem with this mindset, with all due respect-it’s not all about you. You can carry on your personal crusade everywhere with you, but that doesn’t mean that you or anyone is doing the right thing.
All it means is that you’re engaging in the same mud slop that the other person is. It’s the action, not the point of view, and today’s attitude of compulsively pushing your opinions on others isn’t as righteous or overall helpful as people think it is. Consider why we separate things as people. If anything can be hijacked at any time, nothing will ever get done. Everyone will just get covered in mud slinging. Nobody gets convinced by name calling and insults, so it’s not like anything productive is happening, and at the end of the day, all you’ve done is escalate a situation and changed nobody’s minds. You’re not having a productive discussion, and you’ve wasted your time doing something than you originally came here to do to begin with.
“Miss me” all you like, if helps you feel accomplished, but you’re not being productive, and no one else who participates is, either. There’s a time and a place, for one, and mudslinging in response to mudslinging doesn’t do anything but make you feel better (if then, only for a second, until the other side claps back at you again). It’s a lesson that people learn, one way or another. However much time it takes to make that apparent is up to you. Again, this wasn’t directed at you in particular, but everyone who does it just furthers the partisanship that put us where we are now societslly to begin with. This isn’t about the “bothsidesism” that people claim to hate because it holds them accountable for their own partisanship; rather, it’s about how disrespect and mudslinging is cyclical and useless. Don’t be the thing that you hate.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
I especially enjoyed your exposing the mentality behind that ridiculous term “bothsidesism”.
Ak185- Completely agree with you but your post just makes them do it more. They’re like 3 year olds. The more you tell them no the more they’re going to test you. You’re just wasting your time.
Baited
Congrats on provoking a response with a moronic comment. Seems like a big W for you.
Take a look in the mirror sometime.
One thing I think both democrats and republicans can agree on is the Browns are a lousy organization.
Thank you. I’m so sick of it.
Maybe stop drafting Buckeyes. This is the 3rd ex Buckeye to be arrested in a week
Man these young dudes are so F—king dumb lmao
😱
I will never understand these stories. It’s not difficult to not beat a woman. If you need to hit something punch a door, wall, pillow, etc.
It’s beyond stupid. The money and freedom you can lose why would it ever be worth it?
Many dont have fathers in the home to discipline them and teach self-control. Mom is too busy working and putting food on the table.
Very true. Fatherless households are the death of this country amongst other things
Very true but it’s also cultural.
Who’s up for a group hug?…oh wait!…I’m naked.
What the hell is a Quinshon ?
