Former NFL Player Marcellus Wiley Arrested on Domestic Battery Charge in Orange County

The 51-year-old former NFL Pro Bowler was booked into Orange County Jail and remained held without bond, court records show.

  • Former NFL Pro Bowler and sports broadcaster Marcellus Wiley was arrested Saturday by the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Florida and charged with domestic battery, according to court records viewed by The Post.
  • A 10-season NFL career with the Buffalo Bills, San Diego Chargers, Dallas Cowboys, and Jacksonville Jaguars preceded Wiley's transition into broadcasting on ESPN and Fox Sports following his retirement.
  • Earlier this year, Rolling Stone reported four people had filed lawsuits in New York accusing Wiley of sexual assault, which he vehemently denied by citing dismissed cases on his YouTube channel.
  • Records indicate Wiley is currently being held without bond in the Orange County Jail; details regarding the specific incident leading to the charge remain unavailable.
  • The arrest marks the latest legal challenge for the former broadcaster, who previously maintained his innocence regarding earlier allegations by citing court documents on his social media account.
