The athlete was released on $ 2,500 bail and agreed not to have contact with the woman. According to multiple sources, the woman was Peppers' girlfriend.
«Despite this being a case where there is evidence that I have already seen and that raises real doubts about the charges, including video evidence, my client will not object to this condition and will agree to the same», - said Peppers' lawyer, according to CBS News.
At the moment, Peppers is still playing for the Patriots. After his arrest, the team released a statement saying, «We are aware of the incident involving Jabrill Peppers over the weekend, during which the police are currently conducting an investigation. At this time, we have no further comments».
