ASHBURN, Va. -- Former Washington Football Team running back Derrius Guice was suspended for six games for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, according to a league spokesman.
Guice was arrested last August in Loudoun County, Virginia, and charged with one count of strangulation and three counts of assault and battery, stemming from three separate domestic violence incidents involving his then-girlfriend early in 2020. He allegedly pushed the woman to the ground on three different occasions and was also accused of strangulation.
Washington released Guice two hours after he was arrested. He has not played in the NFL since.
