The last thing the Houston Texans needed this offseason was more troubling news from one of their players.
Former TCU running back and current Houston Texans reserve Darius Anderson might be seeing himself out of the league after he got arrested on troubling charges.
According to multiple media reports, the former undrafted free agent running back was arrested early Friday morning in the Museum District neighborhood of Houston on a charge of burglary with intent to rape.
“A woman told police Anderson forced his way into her home, causing her to fall onto a staircase, according to the complaint. She told Houston police that Anderson chased her through the home and she grabbed a gun off a coffee table to prevent him from having access to it, according to the complaint. She never pointed or shot the weapon, according court documents.”
The 24-year-old is now barred from visiting the alleged victim’s residence or possessing a firearm.
“We are aware of the report involving Darius Anderson,” the Texans said in a statement. “We are gathering information and have no further comment at this time.”
