Former Tennessee Titans wide receiver Derrick Mason has been indicted on a misdemeanor domestic assault charge stemming from an incident in October.
Mason, who was a two-time Pro Bowler during his time in the NFL from 1997 to 2011, was handed a one-charge indictment by the Davidson County grand jury on Friday, the Tennessean reported.
According to court documents cited by the report, Mason, 44, attacked a woman who he had been dating in October 2017. She initially told police officers that he grabbed her by the neck, hit her in the stomach and slapped her, but later contradicted those statements in court during a preliminary hearing last December.
