HOUSTON (AP) — Houston Texans safety Jimmie Ward was removed from the commissioner exempt list Monday after a grand jury declined to indict him last week following a June arrest on suspicion of third-degree felony domestic violence.
He was arrested this summer in Magnolia, Texas, on a felony charge of assaulting a family/house member after a woman called authorities to say that he strangled and threatened her, according to police records. The grand jury didn’t find probable cause that Ward committed crimes against the woman and declined to indict him Thursday.
