Vikings Cornerback Jeff Gladney Indicted On Domestic Assault Charge In Texas

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — A grand jury in Texas on Tuesday indicted Minnesota Vikings cornerback Jeff Gladney on a felony assault charge.

Documents filed in Dallas County allege Gladney did “intentionally, knowingly, and recklessly cause bodily injury” to his girlfriend on April 2. The indictment alleges Gladney choked the woman.

Sources told KTVT in Dallas-Fort Worth that Gladney was upset by the woman’s text messages and demanded to see her phone. Sources said she threw the phone out the window, and after Gladney stopped to retrieve it, the woman said he started hitting her.
