Former Clemson wideout Justyn Ross arrested
Former Clemson star and current Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver, Justyn Ross, has found himself in legal trouble after being arrested in Shawnee, Kansas on Monday.
According to the Johnson County Sheriff's Office booking report, Ross is now facing a felony charge of criminal damage amounting to over $25,000. (This number was updated later to $1,000 up to $25,000)
The 23-year-old Ross was subsequently booked into the Johnson County jail, though the report does not provide any specific details or indicate whether a bond has been set in his case. A court date has been scheduled for Tuesday, as listed on the Johnson County sheriff's website.
Ross, who made his way to the Chiefs last season as an undrafted free agent, unfortunately had to sit out the entire 2022 season due to injury. However, this year, he has been an active presence on the field, participating in all seven of the Chiefs' games with three catches for a total of 34 yards.
The Chiefs confirmed their awareness of Ross's arrest but have refrained from making any official comments at this time.
