Xavien Howard is trending for all the wrong reasons on Friday.
The Miami Dolphins cornerback reportedly is being accused of making secret sexual videos and then sharing them without consent. Additionally, it has been reported that a woman got into his community last year and used a bat to smash up his Bentley.
Reporter Andy Slater would state she would be arrested for her actions. We are not sure if both incidents are related.
Howard’s attorney Brad Sohn tells me: “This lawsuit is a dead loser. Period, full stop. We will be seeking dismissal on legal several deficiencies on Monday but in terms of the substance of the case there is just no merit to it.”

After acquiring Jalen Ramsey from the Los Angeles Rams in the offseason via trade, the Miami Dolphins were coming into the season with one of the best secondaries in the NFL with the cornerback duo of Xavien Howard and Ramsey.
Ramsey would get hurt and is slated to not hit the field until December while Howard now has this potential distraction over him as the season draws near.
Howard was a Pro Bowler in 2022, but it wasn’t a great season for him. The veteran had one interception, 12 passes defended, 45 total tackles, two fumble recoveries, and one touchdown. He played in a total of 15 games.
His lack of interceptions was notable as he had five in 2021 and 10 in 2020. Creating turnovers has proven to be a strength for Xavien Howard.
He was even surprised about being named to the Pro Bowl:
“I was surprised,” Howard said. “It’s an honor to be in the Pro Bowl and be consistent with it. But I feel like there were a bunch of plays I left out there on the field. I feel like I can get better. And be better.”
Howard is now 30 years old, which is typically the age when cornerbacks decline, but he is still a huge part of the team and what they are trying to accomplish.
