A day after he pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor charges, Chiefs wide receiver was back at practice.
Andy Reid addressed Ross at the beginning of his news conference on Wednesday.
“We’re taking in all the information and have been and will continue to do that,” Reid said. “He’s back here. He’ll work today and we’ll just take it from there.”
On Tuesday, Ross was charged with one count of domestic battery with no priors and one count of criminal damage to property totaling less than $1,000 after an incident at a Shawnee apartment, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Johnson County District Attorney’s Office.
Asked about determining whether a player with a legal issue can practice, Reid said each situation is considered separately.
“All the situations are different,” Reid said. “The law enforcement part of it, you listen to the real details and what went on. Then you keep open communication with (general manager Brett Veach) and myself and people who deal with law enforcement. Then you make the final decision.”
On radio traffic captured on Broadcastify.com, a police dispatcher stated Monday that the alleged victim told police that Ross was “dragging her through the house and has torn up the house.”
The alleged victim suffered minor injuries, according to a Shawnee Police Department offense report. No specific injuries were included.
