The incident reportedly took place on Dec. 30, two days after the Bengals took on the Denver Broncos at Paycor Stadium. It also occurred between then and the team’s travel to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers in their final game of the regular season.
Jermaine Burton didn’t travel with the team.
The reports state that the 19-year-old woman called the police around 8:45 a.m. and informed them that the wideout chased her inside her apartment, damaged her phone, assaulted her, and even held a knife to his neck and threatened to take his own life.
